While Mohammed Zubair has faced multiple FIRs across states, the Delhi Police found no criminality in a key case. The Reel's claim that he is "breaking the country" is an unproven accusation.

🚩 What's concerning

Lapse

The Delhi Police registered a harassment case against Mohammed Zubair over a tweet that they later admitted to the High Court did not constitute any cognisable offence.

"The tweet on the basis of which a harassment case was registered against Alt News co-founder Mohammed Zubair does not constitute any cognisable offence, the Delhi Police told the High Court" Scroll, 2022-05-20

"The counsel for the Delhi Police informed the court that the probe agency has found no criminality against Zubair and his name has not been included in the chargesheet." Economic Times, 2026-10-09

The trick: Emotional words

It uses emotionally charged words to steer your reaction (known as loaded language).

"बहुत समय से देश को तोड़ने में लगा हुआ है भाई।"

Using emotionally charged accusations does not replace factual proof of criminal intent or guilt.

What the Reel doesn't tell you

Zubair and his platform dismissed the complaints as frivolous attempts to target him.

What each side says

Mohammed ZubairMohammed Zubair stated that the complaints and FIRs registered against him were absolutely frivolous and an attempt to harass him. Scroll

How it tries to persuade you

It wants you to think: "Mohammed Zubair is a dangerous criminal actively working to destroy India."

An FIR is an unproven allegation, not a conviction. In one major case, the Delhi Police admitted to the High Court that his tweet did not constitute any cognisable offence and found no criminality.

Us versus them framing: "Follow krke jaana saare nationalists". It appeals to 'nationalists' to follow the creator's stance.

Does this look wrong?
