Claim: Muslims killed Sadhus in Palghar .
Fact-check: Palghar mob lynching incident is being falsely shared as a Hindu-Muslim incident - FACTLY
Verdict: while it is true that three people, including sadhus, were lynched in palghar , it was not a communal incident as mentioned in the post. a group of villagers lynched three men on the suspicion that they were thieves. the palghar police have clarified that the accused belong to the local tribal community and there was no communal angle to the incident. hence the claim made in the post is false.
