Fact-Check

The DFRAC team investigated the above-shared claim and found it to be manipulated.

We searched some keywords on Google, which led us to recently published reports from various media outlets such as CBS News, ABC News, and Reuters. As per reports, the man behind the New Orleans Attack has been identified as a 42-year-old US-born citizen from Texas. He was a U.S. Army veteran who lived in Houston.


Apparently, no references related to India have surfaced in the reports.

Conclusion

DFRAC’s fact-check Fact-check clearly shows that the above-shared claim asserting that the man behind the New Orleans attack is an Indian RAW Operative has been manipulated since he is a Texas native who has no links to India.

Analysis: Misleading
