The first impression can sometimes be wrong. Especially if you simply leave out the background information on a photo, because Fouad Saleh is not a refugee.
We received requests to compare images on Facebook. It's about this status post:

On the left is a photo of an emaciated child with the subtitle: “This is what people who need protection look like”, on the right you can see a man in court holding both middle fingers up to the camera, underneath the text “NOT LIKE THAT!!!”.
Below the post there are some comments along these lines:

“Let him swim back!!!!”

Such a scumbag is granted asylum and gets everything...
We don't want to go into the comments in more detail here. In any case, some users think the man on the right is a refugee.
But is that true?
The fact check
What the post creator unfortunately forgot to add is that this is a murderer from Sweden. The photo can at least be easily found Imgur
As the Norwegian website Dagbladet reports, here we see 22-year-old Fouad Saleh, who was sentenced to life in prison for the murder of three people. He was a member of a gang or gang.
According to Swedish website Expressen , Saleh admitted to killing a couple in Hallonbergen and that voices in his head ordered him to do so. He is said to be mentally ill and suffer from a personality disorder .
He grew up with his parents and siblings in the Hallonbergen district of Stockholm and was a promising football talent as a teenager.
We already reported on him May 2018 Even then, the photo was taken out of context.
Result:
By providing too little background information, the creator of the post gave the false impression that this could be a refugee/migrant.
But you can see a presumably mentally ill murderer from Sweden who was a member of a gang and killed three people.
