Claim: Video of a young boy beaten to death with stones and axe blows in India.
Fact-check: Murder video from Brazil is passed off as from post-poll violence in West Bengal - FACTLY
Verdict: this video shows a murder incident in fortaleza, the capital of the brazilian state of ceara, where a teenager was beaten to death with stones and axe blows over alleged lgbtq phobia back in 2018. multiple brazilian news agencies reported the incident. the video has nothing to do with india or west bengal post-poll violence. hence the claim made in the post is false.
