Fact-checking body Rumor Scanner has debunked the fake claim regarding international sanctions on the army and Hasina's return to the country which was propagated using Bangla daily Kaler Kantho's logo on the free domain site of Blogspot.
The fact checking watchdog called false the claims using the Kaler Kantho logo about the international ban on the army and Hasina's return to the country.
In an investigation it found that actually Kaler Kantho did not publish any news regarding international sanctions on the army and Hasina's return to the country.
Rather, this fake claim was propagated using the Kaler Kantho logo on the free domain site of Blogspot, said a report of Rumor Scanner on its website on Sunday.
Recently, the fact checking body has seen multiple posts on social media with the headline "International sanctions on the army and the political situation in Bangladesh. Hasina is returning" quoting the national daily Kaler Kantho.
The posts on Facebook where this claim is being propagated are mainly using Kaler Kantho's sources. However, the Rumor Scanner found no evidence of any news publication of the said claim on the website and print edition of Kaler Kantho newspaper in the recent past. —BSS
