Claim: The video shows a police officer arrested by a lawyer under the rules and power provided by the new Indian criminal laws that came into effect from 01 July 2024.
Fact-check: A video from 2022 is falsely shared as visuals of a corrupt cop getting arrested under the new criminal laws implemented from 1 July 2024 - FACTLY
Verdict: this video shows an incident from uttar pradesh's lucknow in 2023, much before the news criminal laws were implemented on 1 july 2024. it shows a police inspector named pradeep pandey being arrested by the anti-corruption department of uttar pradesh after he was caught red-handed while accepting a bribe in the bkp police station area. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
