India’s popular pro-claimed fact-checker Md Zubair, who can see stones as wallets, is under the bus and being targeted by the online trolls with absurd claims & conspiracies of resemblance with terrorist Ajmal Kasab.

A fact-checking thread:
Several online trolls have been sharing a fake conspiracy about Zubair, some either calling him the cousin of Ajmal Kasab & some went a step ahead to call him the living Kasab!

We felt, Zubair needed our help. So, we did some fact-check to quash such conspiracies.

(2/n)
We did some ‘reverse image search’ & realised that Kasab & Zubair were never previously related nor compared to each other. We purely believe in ‘facts’, so we present to you the discrepancies in those conspiracies & put forth real facts as evidence.

(3/n)
Some users claimed that Zubair is Kasab who plastic surgery-ed into India’s proclaimed fact-checker & so he covers his ears to hide the surgery marks.
No, Zubair doesn’t hide his ears-lobes & they are even fairly bigger than Kasab’s earlobes.

See the difference:
(4/n)
Another key difference b/w Kasab & Zubair is their eyebrows. Kasab’s eyebrows were thick, while Zubair has receding & thin eye brow line.
Zubair by any chance has never revealed about any skin or hair receding problem.

(5/n)
Kasab was a trained militant, whereas, Zubair comes from corporate background with no prior experience of militant training. Plus, Kasab operated with guns & rifles, while Zubair- is a social media addict and operates via keyboards & social media.

(6/n)
We even tried putting glasses on Kasab’s face, but realised that there was still not a single scope of similarity between the two. Moreover, Kasab doesn’t come close to matching the charming looks of Zubair.

(7/n)
At the time, when Kasab was in jail, Zubair was a no-one and was enjoying trips to Paris.

To add more difference - Kasab was just 5 ft in contrary to Zubair- who is seemingly lanky and can constitute two Kasabs with his tall height.

(8/n)
Therefore, we conclude that #Kasab & #Zubair are not related. We would continue to expose such conspiracies & keep the social media space clean.

"Independent investigative" journalist Saurav Das recently dropped a hit piece against the former honorable CJI DY Chandrachud via Caravan. Funny how he never mentions his "independent" journalism is bankrolled by known propagandists like Dinesh Thakur.

Let's dive in!🧵 Image
Meet the new bloke in town– Saurav Das
Off late he has become a darling of propaganda portals, this self-proclaimed "independent investigative" (read 𝘥𝘪𝘩𝘢𝘥𝘪) journalist uses the independence tag as window dressing for his CV
But actions speak louder than Twitter bios

2/12
Despite the "independent" badge he wears proudly Das' career is built on questionable & paid propaganda pieces
Case in point: his work for The Thakur Family Foundation(TFF), a grant-making front of Dinesh Thakur, known for targeting Indian pharma industry with deep pockets

@AITCofficial MP @sagarikaghose referencing an anti-India #Propaganda front in the Parliament which fabricates ‘minority atrocity, has clear Paki footprints, is blocked in India, and keeps changing the front name when exposed – not once, twice, but thrice.

Small thread: Image
If she is ignorant about the front (despite being a journalist) then she is unfit to be an MP, and if she knows what she is doing then she is practically colluding with enemies against Indian interests.

(2/7)

This so-called ‘India Hate Lab’ (IHL) was earlier called the Hindutva Watch. Its website and backend tech support were being run from Pakistan. When exposed, it changed its brand to IHL.

There are some in India, still confused about the former US President #DonaldTrump’s conviction – whether it is politically motivated or the rule of law, is taking its course.

A brief explainer on the case and why it matters to us in India.

A Thread: Image
The case:

It’s a bit complicated. It has been made complicated deliberately. Many (including journalists) cannot explain what the allegations are. Most think it’s the ‘hush money’ Trump paid to former porn star #StormyDaniel

It’s not.

2/n
The charges leveled are ‘falsifying business records’

Trump paid his lawyer, Michael Cohen, to pay Stormy to STFU. The payment to Cohen was given as ‘salary’ on which Cohen even paid taxes.

This is the ‘mislabeling’ of expenses for which Trump has been convicted. Really?

There are some in India still confused if Donald Trump’s conviction is political vendetta or rule of law. We do a brief explainer on the present case and other cases brought against #Trump and why it matters to us, in India.

A Thread:
Few Facts:

It is FIRST time in US history that a ‘Federal Election Law’ has been used as a direct state crime.
The definition of crime was CHANGED for the case
It is FIRST time in New York that some is changed for ‘falsifying business ‘record’ as felony (serious crime)

2/n Image
More facts

Earlier a NEW LAW was introduced to extend time on case against Trump by #Stormy

Prosecutor is #Soros baby & a political (#Democrat)
Even before joining office he declared to prosecute Trump!
He reduced crimes to minor offences(like our #Pune judge) in 60% cases

Pak/Jamaat-backed anti-India propagandist Raqib Naik filed case in Delhi HC to unban Hindutva Watch & India Hate Lab. He's being aided by Internet Freedom Foundation (IFF) whose lawyers tell story of anti-India collusion via #Thakur #Soros

First proof of his Pak/JeI collusion
🧵 Image
Exhibit A

Hindutva Watch (HW) website was exposed for having backend assistance from Pak. An ‘interactive map’ of alleged human rights abuses in India on HW’s website, was developed & provided by Pak national Sardar Adil Kayani, who runs Pak's ruling PML-N party propaganda

2/n Image
Exhibit B

In 2021, Raqib received an award from Sound Vision Foundation USA (SVF), a US-based Jamaat front with ISI backing, led by ex-Jamaat Youth Wing head Abdul Malik Mujahid (@MalikMujahid), who supported and glorified terrorism against India.
