During the monitoring of social media, it was observed that a fake/morphed video has been shared on Twitter by some Twitter handles, they said.
In reality, the video was of the meeting of the cabinet committee, which took place on December 9, 2021, after the demise of Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat. The video was readily available on various news portals and social media platforms, a senior police officer said.
“With the ill-intent to promote enmity and instigate communal disharmony, the video was morphed and a new voiceover was super imposed in which the alleged persons tried to show that the meeting was against the Sikh community,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (IFSO) KPS Malhotra said.
