What FACTLY found

It is an old video. The video is not related to the recent violence in Delhi’s Jahangirpuri. The person talking in the video is Mufti Raees Ahmad Qasmi (Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind, Dehradun); he is not Delhi Qazi. The video is from 2019 when he spoke to the media in Dehradun in the context of the Tabrez Ansari lynching incident. A case was also booked against Mufti Raees Ahmad Qasmi after this speech
