Viral Video of Man Getting Thrashed on Road Is From Hapur, Clip Being Shared With Misleading Claim: UP Police

A shocking incident has emerged from Hapur, where a viral video shows a man being assaulted on the road, sparking widespread outrage on social media. The clip, which surfaced on October 9, depicts a group of men intercepting a boy on a bike, reportedly after he picked up his sister from school. Contrary to claims circulating online that the victim is a Muslim and was attacked over a religious dispute, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Vineet Jaiswal clarified that the incident occurred about 10 days ago. He stated that the girl involved had filed an FIR against the boy, identified as Akram, on allegations of luring and raping her. The ASP also emphasized that the attackers were the girl's brothers, who confronted Akram while he was returning with her from a hotel. Authorities are now pursuing legal action against those misrepresenting the video's context and linking it to other incidents in Ghaziabad.
