The Liar Wire is back at at its game of fabricating murders like its pamphleteer friend Caravan. This time it is not just trying to fix Amit Shah or Narendra Modi in fake murder charges as is its wont. Now it is trying to incite riots by spreading fake news on Navreet Singh’s death. Navreet Singh was a farmer protestor who was part of the tractor rally and died due to his own reckless driving at break neck speed and trying to break up a police barricade. The incident was caught in the CCTV cameras.

Rajdeep Sardesai and his friends were caught lying by the police and other nationalist media persons after which there was a huge outrage on the social media. The India Today also under pressure from the netizens’ strong criticism of providing platforms for fake news to be spread in sensitive times, capable of flaring into large scale riots, tried to assuage the matter by announcing to take Rajdeep off air and cut a month’s salary and has also reportedly now sacked him permanently.

But the Wire continues to peddle lies perhaps to bail out an FIR filed by UP Police for spreading malicious lies and instigating riots against Rajdeep Sardesai, Shashi Tharoor, Caravan Magazine.

The Wire on Saturday published an article insinuating that the protester who died during the Delhi tractor rally on Republic Day, had died of bullet injuries and not because of the injuries he sustained from the overturning of the tractor.

The article further claims that Navreet’s relatives claimed to speak to the doctor who carried out the autopsy who said that Navreet sustained a bullet injury, ‘his hands were tied’, thereby insinuating that the UP government is trying to cover up.

The Rampur District Magistrate clarified that the statements made by Wire was false, The Wire has stuck to its report. It has only updated the report while the headline still continues to be provocative.

The article titled “Autopsy Doctor Told Me He’d Seen the Bullet Injury But Can Do Nothing as His Hands are Tied” quoted the grandfather of the deceased to cast aspersions on the cause of the death of the protester and allege that the administration is hiding his real cause of the death.

The Wire published an article casting aspersions on the cause of death of a protester during the tractor rally.

The Wire report impugns the validity of the post mortem report released by a medical officer at the District Hospital, Rampur, after a 2 am autopsy on January 27, which concluded that the protester, Navreet Singh, had died because of “shock and hemorrhage as a result of antemortem head injury” which has also been consistent with the Delhi Police’s explanation.

However, the report published by Siddharth Varadarajan’s website quoted Hardeep Singh Dibdiba, the grandfather of the deceased, who said that a doctor had confided in him that the real cause of Singh’s death was a bullet injury.

The Wire quoted Hardeep Singh Dibdiba to claim, “We were told by the doctor that they have clearly seen the bullet injury, and then we cremated his body peacefully. But we were cheated as the [post mortem] report that came out did not say that. The doctor even told me that even though he had seen the bullet injury, he can do nothing as his hands are tied,”.

Vikramjeet Singh, Navreet’s father, also raised suspicion over the autopsy report of his son’s death. Vikramjeet alleged that all those who saw Navreet’s body claimed that he died of a bullet injury.

He also added that one of the doctors who did the post-mortem report allegedly confessed to him that Navreet died of a bullet injury but he could not do anything to mention the same in the postmortem report.

But the claim of doctors being railroaded to prepare a false autopsy report was refuted by the senior-most police officer quoted by The Wire.

According to ADG Bareilly Avinash Chandra, the police had no reason whatsoever to suppress or distort such a document because the matter is of Delhi Police.

Besides, the report also added a video of the deceased to buttress the claims made by the family. Referring to the video, the family stated that the gash over Navreet’s ears was an exit wound of a bullet.

But, Manoj Shukla, deputy CMO and doctor at the district hospital in Rampur where the post-mortem report was prepared, said this was not the case. Repudiating the claims of a bullet wound, Shukla told The Wire that it might be possible that something else might have hit his right ear or the leftist portal might have gotten the wrong document.

What is intriguing to note here is that despite the refusal of the Uttar Pradesh Police and the deputy CMO of the hospital where the autopsy was conducted expressly denying that Navreet died of a bullet injury, The Wire did not bother to mention the same in their headline. Instead, it went ahead with a misleading headline to raise aspersions on the authenticity of the autopsy report.

However, the District Magistrate, Rampur, shared a signed declaration of the three doctors who had carried out the autopsy that the above allegations were false. The signed declaration states that none of the three doctors who were involved in the autopsy had spoken to any media persons or any other persons. The autopsy was video-recorded and the findings were given in sealed envelop to the officers.

Subsequently, The Wire has updated the article to include above information. The DM further rebuked The Wire Founding Editor for irresponsible reportage and asked who would take responsibility for the law and order situation that could have happened because of such misleading reportage.

UP Police filed FIR against Rajdeep Sardesai, Shashi Tharoor, Caravan Magazine for furthering lies and instigating violence. A raging controversy was kicked up after left-leaning liberals, including journalist Rajdeep Sardesai and Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, alleged that the man who died in the tractor rally on Republic Day, died of bullet injuries. The rioter had died after a speeding tractor overturned near the ITO junction in central Delhi in a bid to run over the police personnel during the violence that marred the national capital.UP Police had then lodged an FIR against several politicians and journalists for sharing fake news during the tractor rally in Delhi on 26th January. The FIR under section 154 of CrPC was lodged at the Noida sector 20 police station. The FIR named Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, India Today journalist Rajdeep Sardesai, National Herald’s Senior consulting editor Mrinal Pandey, Quami Awaz editor Zafar Agha, Caravan magazine’s editor and founder Paresh Nath, Caravan editor Anant Nath and its executive editor Vinod K Jose, and one unnamed person.

All of them were booked for spreading the fake news that one protestor was shot dead by Delhi Police during the tractor rally on Republic Day, who had actually died due tohis own negligent and rash driving.

Rajdeep Sardesai had tweeted the fake news on Twitter, and later had repeated the same on India Today, claiming that bullet injury was seen on the head of the deceased. Shashi Tharoor and others named in the FIR had also circulated the fake news, which had instigated the protestors to indulge in violence.

The whole episode seems like a sordid story of first fabricating one lie to sensationalize the situation and cause large scale riots and get international media attention and obfuscate the large scale violence and attack on policemen who were observing complete restraint at the cost of endangering their own lives and being critically injured.

Pictures don’t lie, so do the videos don’t lie. We could see innumerable pictures of Khalistanis brandishing their swords and attacking the policemen in Red Fort and other areas in Delhi. Plus the video of Navreet Singhs overturning vehicle clearly shows how the tractor was being driven recklessly from a very long distance, in fact it shows media a nd police men running away to avoid being mowed down by the reckless

Posted below is the video of the manner Navreet lost control of his tractor due to reckless high speed and crashing into the barriers which overturned the vehicle and led to his death.

This case is another such fabrication as the infamous Judge Loya death case, where the unfortunate natural death of the Judge due to a massive heart attack, where all kinds of cock and bull stories were cooked up to fix some conspiracy case on Amit Shah by the same Sonia Congress and her leftist pamphleteers. These web portals and magazines should not be allowed to operate as they are highly mischievous with an ultimate aim to break the country into several pieces.
