Old image<\/h4>\n

The image dates back to at least 2018. It was traced to a Facebook post<\/a> shared in the month of September that year, gaining over 30,000 shares. As per the post, the image shows an unidentified 70-year-old man at Bohri Chowk in Punjab\u2019s Tarn Taran city.<\/p>\n

While we were unable to verify details of the photograph, it is unrelated to the recent farmers\u2019 agitation. However, it is also noteworthy that several protesters have passed away in the ongoing movement. According to a report published by Al Jazeera<\/a> on December 18, the police said that at least 25 people have died, \u201cseveral of them due to bittering cold\u201d, in three weeks of the protests.<\/p>\n
