Hyderabad: A disturbing video showing an alleged sexual assault on a women food delivery executive has been circulating on social media.

The video is being shared with the claim suggesting that the incident is real.

Fact Check

NewsMeter found the claim false, as the video is scripted.

A reverse image search led us to the extended version of the video, published by a verified YouTube channel, 3rd Eye, on January 2, 2025, titled ‘This Was Unexpected..! See What Happened When a Delivery Person Meets the Wrong Address.’

However, the disclaimer in the description clarified that the video is scripted: “Thank you for watching! Please note that this page features scripted dramas, parodies, and awareness videos. These short films are created for entertainment and educational purposes only. All characters and situations depicted in the videos are fictional and intended to raise awareness, entertain, and educate.”

The About section of the channel states that it posts funny, serious, action, drama, comedy and informative videos daily.

We reviewed the channel and found several videos related to women (links here, here and here) with disclaimers stating that the video was scripted for awareness purposes.

Therefore, we conclude that the viral video of an assault on a food delivery agent is scripted. The claim is false.
