The first photograph shows a woman with a man and in the second image, the woman has injuries on her face. From the Twitter account, History Of India (@RealHistoriPix), the claim has nearly 1,000 likes and over 500 retweets. Courtesy "Alt News" Twitter account Congress Mukt Bharat (@sagenaradamuni) has also shared the images and alleged that a Hindu woman who married a Muslim man was subjected to domestic violence. The post has attracted nearly 500 retweets. The claim has also been made in Hindi. Twitter user Manjeet Bagga (@Goldenthrust) shared the images with a Hindi message that alleges the same. “#असम की ये मैडम जी अपने पति और छोटी सी बेटी को छोड़कर एक कटपीस जाकिर हुसैन के साथ निकाह कर #रुबिया बन गईं थी! अब हुसैन इनके हूर जैसे खूबसूरत थोबड़े पर लाजवाब पेंटिंग बना रहा है.” He uses the word ‘cutpiece’ which is a derogatory word used to refer to Muslims. Bagga’s tweet had 6,000 likes at the time of writing this article. Courtesy "Alt News" The Hindi message has been shared by many on Facebook, including the page ‘Rss Uttarpara Nagar’. Courtesy "Alt News" It is, in fact, viral on both Facebook and Twitter. FACT-CHECK Alt News found that a 2012 incident was given a communal spin on social media. According to July 1, 2012, report by The Hindu, Assam Congress MLA Rumi Nath and her second husband Jakie Zakir were beaten up and injured in a hotel in the southern Karimganj town. Courtesy "Alt News" The media outlet further said, “It was on May 22 [2012] that Ms. Nath’s first husband Rakesh Singh lodged a First Information Report with the police alleging that his wife was kidnapped after she went missing the previous day. But Ms. Nath surfaced in Guwahati on June 2 and said she was not kidnapped and that she was away on a holiday trip to Agartala. Ending media speculation, she also announced that she and Mr. Zakir had been married, and that her papers for divorce with her first husband were ready.” India Today had also reported the incident and said that the couple was attacked by a 100-strong mob. Nath alleged that the gang of men tore off her clothes and attempted to rape her. The police had arrested five people in the case. The image viral on social media was picked up from a report by the media outlet. In an interview, Nath said that the mob tried to “rape and murder her.” When asked if she thought that the attack had communal motives, she alleged a “politically conspiracy.” Courtesy "Alt News" Other media outlets – NDTV, Hindustan Times – had also reported the incident. A subsequent report by The Indian Express said that Nath’s first husband later filed an FIR against her and her second husband “accusing them of bigamy, illicit relation as well as theft.” The report also said that Nath had “admitted to have married for the second time without divorcing her first husband.” Two years later, Nath lodged an FIR against her second husband. “Jackie Zakir, the second husband of Congress MLA Rumi Nath, was arrested by police this evening on charges of extortion and physical assault,” according toAssam Tribune. Jakie, however, denied the allegation and cited “political motive” behind Nath’s move. A seven-year-old photograph of a Congress MLA injured in a mob attack was falsely shared as a Hindu woman, who had converted to Islam after marriage, beaten up by her Muslim husband.
