Fake video on Indian Police pogrom against Muslims deleted by Imran Khan
New Delhi, Jan 03: The Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday deleted all the three videos from his Twitter timeline in which he falsely claimed that Police was carrying out a pogrom against Muslims in Uttar Pradesh.
Imran Khan's tweet backfired today as he highlighted calling "Indian Police's pogrom against Muslims" and ended up tagging a seven-year-old video of police brutality from Bangladesh. He falsely claimed that Police was carrying out a pogrom against Muslims in Uttar Pradesh to the old video of Bangladesh.
