PeakMetrics research summary

Based on related reporting. This does not summarize the original publisher’s reasoning.

Research from related reporting identifies the video as showing an incident at Dhaka University, not Delhi University. It reports that a man accused of harassing female students was detained and handed to police; the reports do not support the claim that this happened at Delhi University or involved “love jihad.”[S1][S2]

Additional context

India Today reports that the incident took place on the afternoon of April 26 near the Faculty of Business Studies at the University of Dhaka. [S1]
