The claim
The video shows a man who went to file a missing complaint about his daughter being slapped by a policeman, after which the local MLA visited the police station and confronted the officer.
Original review summary
The review says the viral video combines two unrelated incidents, rather than showing an MLA confronting the officer who slapped a man reporting his daughter missing. One clip shows a man reporting his missing niece; the other shows a man attacking police officers during an inquiry over a land dispute.[S1]
Additional context
The Binauli incident occurred on 18 September 2022; the review says the inspector was transferred and departmental action was initiated. [S1]
The separate Pandavapura incident occurred on 28 December 2024. The review says Sagar was later arrested. [S1]
