Violence In West Bengal's Telinipara,129 arrested, Fake images

West Bengal Police has arrested 129 persons in connection with violence at Telinipara in West Bengal’s Hooghly district. Violence between two communities had erupted in the area on Sunday allegedly over a dispute over using a public toilet during lockdown.




Monday, May 11 passed without incident. Then, on the afternoon of Tuesday, May 12, a big mob descended on the locality and large-scale targeted violence followed. The district magistrate imposed Section 144 on the same day, and also suspended internet services in the adjoining Chandannagar and Shrirampur subdivisions of Hooghly district, within which Bhadreswar and Telinipara lie.





A set of four images of violence over reported land dispute in Pakistan has resurfaced and is being falsely linked to the communal clashes that hit Telinipara in West Bengal earlier this week. The set of images shows a man bleeding from his head, while two others show people rushing to douse flames that have engulfed thatched houses. In another image, an injured woman can be seen lying on a bed as an aftermath of the violence.
