JAKARTA - A video is circulating on social media with a narrative of tuyul sightings. The 7-second video was uploaded by Riski Chebol's account some time ago. This upload is narrated with 'tuyul sightings seconds'.

From the video, it appears that four people are talking in front of a cellphone shop. Between them, a small black figure flashed past.

Reporting from turnbackhoax.id, the video is a false claim. In fact, the little black figure that passed was a child who was running. He and his parents were eating at the shop next to the shop. This incident occurred at a cellphone shop called Centra Perdana Ungaran Barat, Semarang Regency.

Quoted from Tribunnews, an employee of Centra Perdana, Isnaen said, the recording was taken on September 7, 2020 and began to spread widely in the community on September 15, 2020. Isnaen said he was shocked by the spread of a video called tuyul sightings.

"At first I was told by my nephew, I was shocked and worried that there would be negative effects. Because the captions were not correct and the videos had been edited with incorrect purposes, which made me anxious," he told Tribunnews, Saturday, September 19.

Isnaen said that the video given the wrong narrative was detrimental to various parties. "Poor children are thought to be tuyul. It's a pity that those who have a shop are considered to be occult or sweethearted, "he added.

Isnaen said that this video was originally taken to check the buyer's transactions at that time. Then, another employee made the recording a WhatsApp story.

"From there, it turns out that there were contacts that were saved and edited in various ways," explained Isnaen.

Isnaen himself does not know who is the irresponsible person who deliberately edited and distributed the video with the information about the appearance of tuyul.

Meanwhile, what is called a tuyul is a small child who is running. Isnaen said, the child and his parents were eating.

“Next door is a food stall. So it was the child and his parents eating at the stall next door. Keep running until the front of the shop, "he added. Isnaen hopes that the accounts that distribute videos with incorrect narratives will be deleted.

Meanwhile, the Instagram account @ fath7027 also uploaded a similar video. The video is similar to the one uploaded by Rizki Chebol's account. However, there is no appearance of tuyul in the video. In fact, the video more clearly depicts a small child in a beaked jacket running.

"In this CCTV recording, there is nothing strange, Nothing strange happened. I posted this video in response to a video that was already viral with a negative caption. There are people who are not responsible for editing videos. And finally made unrest.

Pity the children of people who are thought to be strange, sorry for owning a shop that can have a negative impact on their business.

Asked for accounts @ indozone.id @makassar_iinfo @infocegatansolo who are still posting edited videos with negative captions, to immediately delete them. Thank you, ”wrote the Instagram account @ fath7027.
