Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 47432, member: 636"] Bangladesh officials exposed a false video that political supporters shared online. The Chief Adviser's Press Wing investigated footage showing students fighting each other. Pro-Awami League activists claimed the video proved recent gang violence among young people. They labeled the content as evidence of July Gang Culture happening inside Bangladesh. The press office found these claims were completely wrong. The video actually came from Kerala state in India during 2023. Indian news websites had already reported about the student brawl when it first happened. The footage shows around 20 students hitting and kicking each other during a street fight. Two students suffered serious injuries during the clash between rival groups. The original incident occurred more than a year before activists started sharing it as recent news. Indian media outlets published the video under headlines about shocking student violence in Kerala. The Times Now website featured the footage with details about the location and injuries. An Instagram account called DBC HINDI posted the video in February with accurate information about where it happened. Investigators matched the visuals from both sources to confirm the real origin. The press wing stated that political activists deliberately misrepresented old foreign content as current local events. They warned people about false information campaigns targeting Bangladesh. The investigation proved the video had no connection to any incident inside the country. Officials urged citizens to verify sources before believing or sharing violent content on social media platforms. [/QUOTE]
