A trending video of an alleged crowd of Brazillian people beating a half-dead man with sticks before setting him ablaze for raping a baby cannot be verified by any major news media in the country.
According to the caption of the video which has gone viral on X, it happened in the municipality of Jutaí, Amazonas, when the angry crowd in Brazil invaded the 56ª Police Station and took out a man who had kidnapped, raped then killed a 1-year-and-seven-months child. They then severely beat him up to a pulp before setting him on fire alive.
The video was posted on X by Lord Bebo who claimed that the rapist had confessed to the police that he had raped the toddler and thrown his body into a river.
It was said that after his confession, the angry crowd gathered at the police station and despite the efforts of the civil and military police to disperse them, the angry people overpowered the prison security by nightfall, took the rapist out of his cell, lynched him, then burnt him to death. An ambulance was seen in the video driving off as the fire continued to consume the suspect.
