Original Note:
Md Zubair was not arrested for fact checking, instead for a tweet, an image of a hotel signboard repainted from “Honeymoon Hotel” to “Hanuman Hotel” for promoting enmity between two groups, also known as "Blasphemy law". Which is criminal offense in India under IPC 295. https://www.outlookindia.com/national/arrest-of-journalist-mohammad-zubair-what-happened-and-how-media-and-opposition-reacted-news-205195
