Claim:  This video shows a Muslim woman working as a house help, mixing urine in food.

Fact: The woman accused of mixing urine in food in this incident is not Muslim. She has been identified as Reena, a house help in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. The incident came to light when her employer recorded a video of her urinating in a utensil and mixing it with flour to make rotis. Reena confessed to the police, admitting she acted out of anger due to constant monitoring and scolding by her employer. The FIR copy confirmed her name as Reena, wife of Pramod Kumar, and identified her as Hindu. Hence, the claim made in the post is Misleading.
