A graphic carrying "Ground Truth" branding and the caption "Shame Delhi Police" is circulating on social media. It claims that when journalist Rosy asked Delhi Police ACP Vivek Bhagat questions, he groped her, pushed her and fled. To back the claim, the post uses an ACP's photo next to the journalist's picture and a set of supposed CCTV stills showing the incident. PIB Fact Check has flagged the post as fake, saying it contains AI-generated or manipulated visuals and that the CCTV footage image is fabricated. Fake "CCTV evidence" makes a serious allegation look believable and can quickly damage the reputation of the officer and the police force. PIB advises people to verify such content before sharing it.
