In a shocking revelation, Brazilian model Larissa was left stunned after discovering that her old photo was allegedly used multiple times in Haryana’s voter list. The issue surfaced when Congress leader Rahul Gandhi cited her picture while accusing large-scale voter fraud during the 2024 Haryana Assembly Elections.
On Wednesday, Gandhi claimed in a press conference that nearly 2.5 million fake votes were cast in Haryana. During the investigation, one case revealed that a single woman’s image — actually belonging to model Larissa — appeared 22 times under different names like Sweety, Seema, and Saraswati.
Larissa’s First Reaction Goes Viral
Following the revelation, Larissa responded through a video on X (formerly Twitter), speaking in Portuguese with visible disbelief and humor.
She said, “Friends, I have a crazy story! An old picture of mine is being used for voting in India. I was so young when this photo was taken, and now it’s being used as an Indian voter! People are arguing over my picture — this is unbelievable!”
Her lighthearted yet shocked reaction quickly went viral online.
Journalists Seek Her Comment on Indian Elections
Larissa revealed that after the incident, a journalist contacted her workplace and even messaged her on Instagram for a comment on her “involvement” in Indian elections. Calling the situation “absurd and unreal,” she said, “A friend just sent me another picture — you won’t believe what they’ve done with it!”
An AI assistant, Grok, translated her video, confirming that Larissa was “stunned and amused” by the misuse of her photo and firmly denied any connection to the voter list.
Rahul Gandhi Targets BJP and Election Commission
Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi intensified his attack on the BJP and the Election Commission, alleging systematic manipulation in the Haryana polls.
He said, “We have solid evidence of massive irregularities in Haryana’s voting process. Nearly one out of every eight voters is fake. Out of two crore voters, around 25 lakh are fraudulent.”
What Rahul Gandhi Claimed
According to Gandhi, 5.21 lakh voter entries were found suspicious, with the same photo used under multiple names. He described it as “a planned fraud, not a technical error.”
This controversy has sent shockwaves through Indian politics, sparking debates about electoral integrity — and unexpectedly, making a foreign model the face of one of India’s biggest voter fraud allegations.
