Four suspects arrested over woman’s assault case

KLANG: Four suspects, including the husband of a woman who was brutally assaulted and slashed outside her work place in Taman Klang Jaya, are now in police custody.

South Klang OCPD Asst Comm Shamsul Amar Ramli said the suspects were arrested over the last three days.

“We initially arrested and remanded three suspects and only just apprehended the woman’s husband.

“We also seized a car, a machete and several mobile phones,” he said yesterday.

It was reported that the man driven by jealousy, allegedly attacked his 42yearold wife, R. Komathi, and a video clip of the incident has since gone viral.

Komathi is being treated for inju ries to her head, left wrist, legs and back at the Seremban Hospital.

In the twoandahalfminute video, a man is seen dragging and beating Komathi in front of a blue car while screams can be heard in the background in an area believed to be in Klang.

Another man, brandishing a parang, then gets out of the car and walks towards his friend, who is dragging the woman towards the passenger side of the vehicle.

One of the suspects then swings the parang repeatedly at Komathi, who is then bundled into the car screaming.

The suspects then drove off before dumping her at the Seremban Hospital before fleeing the scene.

The case has been classified as attempted murder.
