Original review summary

Fact Crescendo says the viral video does not show the murder of Arvind Vaishya in Dharavi; it shows the killing of YSRCP youth leader Sheikh Rasheed in Andhra Pradesh. The review reports that police described Rasheed’s killing as stemming from a personal dispute, not a political or religious cause.[S1]

Additional context

The review says Vaishya was killed while intervening in a dispute between two groups in Dharavi’s Rajiv Nagar area. [S1]

The video instead shows an attack in Vinukonda, Andhra Pradesh, on July 18, at about 8:30 p.m., according to the review. [S1]
