Claim: An X user shared a video claiming that two men who confronted soldiers during the voting exercise in Obuasi East are now receiving treatment in a hospital.

Source: @RoGoat7 (X) (Archived here).

Verdict: True.Explanation: We compared the video of the two men in a hospital with the video of the altercation and found them to be the same people.  Although their shirts were now off, they were still wearing the same trousers spotted in the video of the altercation. Similarly, an unidentified man who appeared in the confrontation video was also seen with them at the hospital.
