‘Trump cheating at golf': Massive claim emerges amid Scotland trip; caddie video draws attention
A video of President Donald Trump playing golf during his Scotland trip has gone viral. The clip, showing the 79-year-old's caddie allegedly tossing a ball into the light rough near a bunker, has sparked a 'cheating' row. Now, several social media users claim that Trump was 'cheating at golf' - a sport he loves. US President Donald Trump waves from a golf cart at the Trump Turnberry golf course in Turnberry, Scotland(Bloomberg) Neither Trump nor the White House have responded to the renewed 'cheating' allegations yet. 'Trump caught cheating at golf, watch the second guy in the red vest toss a ball behind him,' one person wrote on X, platform formerly known as Twitter. Read More: Trump says US will work with Thailand and Cambodia, adds both 'want to settle' 'Watch his caddy drop the ball in a more favorable location for him. First he cheated on his wife with children, and now he's cheating at golf. What low will he not stoop to?' another person tweeted. The two X users posted videos of the alleged 'cheating' incident. The video, recorded during Trump's Saturday round, shows him arriving at a bunker in a cart, followed by a caddie dropping a ball just short of the sand trap. Trump then approaches and hits from the new position, prompting accusations of 'cheating'. This echoes past allegations, including claims from Rick Reilly's book Commander in Cheat, which details the president's alleged habit of manipulating shots. President Trump's Scotland trip, with scheduled talks with EU and UK leaders, has drawn criticism. Several Democrats noted that the 79-year-old is spending most of his time at Turnberry and his Aberdeen course. Rick Reilly, who has played with the president, spoke to The Spun about Trump's golf habits - including taking unearned chip-ins and claiming he 'cannot lose' and will 'do anything to cheat'.

This comes less than a week before the deadline for Trump's higher tariffs to take effect. Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced the deal Sunday at his golf club in Turnberry, Scotland, although they didn't disclose the full details.

Extortion bid foiled, accused held
Lucknow: Kushinagar police on Sunday cracked an extortion case in which a jeweller received WhatsApp messages demanding Rs 5 crore under threat of death. The accused, Aryan Upadhyay, a resident of Sarpathahi Buzurg under the Nebua Naurangia police station, was arrested within hours of the complaint. The victim, Anshuman Banka, a well-known jeweller in Padrauna, lodged an FIR after receiving threatening WhatsApp messages. The sender, operating under the alias 'Munna Tabahi,' claimed to be from 'AK-47 Gang', wrote in one of the messages: "Give Rs 5 crore or I'll shoot you in broad daylight at a public crossing. You have 24 hours." Kushinagar SP Santosh Kumar Mishra immediately formed a multi-unit task force comprising personnel from the Padrauna police, Nebua Naurangia police, SWAT team, cyber cell, and surveillance units. Through electronic surveillance and technical analysis, the police traced the number to Aryan Upadhyay, who was promptly arrested. The mobile phone used to send the threats was recovered from his possession. "During interrogation, Aryan confessed to sending the threats with the intention of intimidating the jeweller. He admitted that there is no such gang as the 'AK-47 Gang' and that the threats were made in a fit of anger to scare the trader. He further revealed that he had similarly threatened a journalist in Nebua Naurangia earlier this month. A separate case (FIR No. 283/2025 under BNS 351(2) and IT Act 67) has been registered in that incident," Mishra said.
