A video is being shared widely on social media with a claim that it shows the funeral of singer Sidhu Moose Wala, who was recently killed. Let’s fact-check the claim made in the post.
Claim: Video of singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s funeral.
Fact: It is an old video. The video is not related to Sidhu Moose Wala’s funeral. However, there are other actual videos of the crowd at Sidhu Moose Wala’s funeral. Hence the claim made in the post is MISLEADING.
When the screenshots of the video were run through Google Reverse Image Search, many similar videos were found in the search results. Many of those videos were posted at least seven months ago as videos related to the funeral of a soldier (different people claimed them to be the funeral of a different soldier). Some of the old videos can be seen here, here, here, and here.
However, there are other actual videos of the crowd at Sidhu Moose Wala’s funeral. Some of those actual visuals can be seen here and here.
