Fact Seeker also observed how various people have given critical comments regarding this post and looked into this matter.

It appears that the “Compass Related Families” section of this post has been edited.

Has a post like this been published by the National People’s Force? 

Fact Seeker made an inquiry in this regard to the media section of the National People’s Power. There, they stated that the National People’s Power is implementing a social care program called “Arunata Pera” where free haircuts will be done for school children. The media department stated that a poster has also been created in this regard.

But they also stated that it is not only for the children of Malima and that the actual poster has been edited and this poster has been published with those changes.

Accordingly, Fact Seeker confirms that this is a fake post.
