Unnao: Youth Arrested After Viral Train Stunt Video, Family Says Clip Was Edited To Gain Views (Watch Video)

A young man from Uttar Pradesh’s Unnao district has been arrested after a video reel showing him lying on a railway track as a train appears to pass over him went viral on social media.

The stunt, seemingly done for social media fame, prompted swift action from the Government Railway Police (GRP), which has now launched an official investigation.

They maintain that no law was broken and that it was simply an attempt to gain attention online.  Unnao: Man Dies After Being Pulled From Autorickshaw, Forcibly Smeared With Holi Colours in UP (Watch Video).
