“Nupur Sharma supporter ‘Naresh’ chopped off Rauf’s head in self-defence”
What FACTLY found
There is no evidence to show that Nupur Sharma supporter ‘Naresh’ chopped off Rauf’s head in self-defence. On 21 June 2022, a pharmacist named Umesh Kolhe was murdered in Amaravati. Maharashtra. On 28 June 2022, Ghaus Mohammad and Riyaz Attari killed a Hindu tailor named Kanhaiyalal in Udaipur, Rajasthan. Both the killings happened because they had supported Nupur Sharma on social media. However, we could not find any recent reports which confirm that a supporter of Nupur Sharma beheaded someone
