Cops investigating viral slashing video

PETALING JAYA: Police are investigating a shocking video being shared on social media showing two men slashing a woman.

The two-and-a-half minute video, which has gone viral, is alleged to have been shot at an industrial estate in Klang.

"We are in the midst of tracing the whereabouts of the suspects in the video. Our initial investigation indicates that it was a fight between a husband and wife," said  Selangor CID chief Senior Asst Comm Fadzil Ahmat when contacted.

The video starts with a man dragging and beating a woman in front of a blue car, while several people witnessing the beating are heard screaming.

Another man can be seen getting out of the car brandishing a weapon resembling a machete and walking towards the two, as the other man drags the woman towards the passenger side of the vehicle.

Moments later the accomplice opens the car door as the suspect grabs the weapon and threatens to slash the woman.

The two men drag the woman behind the passenger side door as one of the suspects swings the weapon repeatedly at the woman.

The two then bundle the woman into the car as she is heard screaming for help before driving off.
