The incident occurred in front of a restaurant in Pandan Jaya, Ampang.
Police are tracking down a man seen repeatedly assaulting a woman in a video that went viral on social media recently
According to New Straits Times, Ampang Jaya deputy police chief Supt Mohd Azam Ismail said his team received a case report from the Pandan Indah police station chief after the video went online.
The one-minute video shows a woman being repeatedly kicked, slapped, and verbally abused by a man in front of a restaurant in Pandan Jaya, Ampang.
However, no report has yet been lodged by the victim or witnesses of the incident
"So far, no witnesses have turned up at the police station to give a statement," Mohd Azam said, according to Harian Metro.
The police currently believe that the suspect and the victim have family ties.
Mohd Azam added that they are tracking down both the suspect and victim seen in the video
He said the case is being investigated under Section 323 of the Penal Code for intentionally causing injury, as well as Section 18(a) of the Domestic Violence Act, and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act for the sharing of offensive content.
Asking for help is not a sign of weakness.
