Wrong man pictured in social media posts about Met Police shooting of two dogs

Wrong man pictured in social media posts about Met Police shooting of two dogs

A number of posts on Facebook wrongly claim to have identified a Metropolitan Police officer who attended an incident in London on 7 May where two dogs were shot dead by police.

Photograph of girls in white dresses does not show child brides

Thousands of people have shared a post that shows a photograph of what it implies are child brides. But the photograph does not show this.  The Facebook reel, which has over 2,600 shares, has a split screen and overlaid text that says: “Pedophilia is legal in some countries [sic].” The top half of the post shows a photo of a line of girls in white dresses holding hands with older men.  But the image of the little girls actually shows them attending the weddings of their older relatives, rather than being brides themselves.
