A photo of a man in riot gear has been shared online alluding that he posed as a policeman during protests against the farm laws. 

Alt News ran a check and found that a photo of a constable with Delhi police is being circulated with the false claim that a citizen impersonated the cop during violence in farmers’ protest. 

The constable’s image was wrongly shared as that of a right wing activist who became infamous during the anti-CAA movement.
