A video of the incident was recorded by an unknown individual and has since gone viral, attracting outrage in social media.
In the video, the woman can be seen hitting a girl, who is believed to be under six years old, at least 30 times using a wooden ‘back scratcher’.
The incident happened in a house at Taman Puchong Perdana in Puchong.
In the two minute and 50 seconds video, a girl can be seen eating before a woman is heard asking the child to leave the dining table.
This happened when some of the girl’s food had spilled on the floor.
As the girl stands up, the woman immediately sets on her and starts beating her with a back scratcher mercilessly.
The girl immediately starts screaming and wailing but the woman ignores her cries to stop.
As the woman was beating the child, she can be heard saying: “No matter how many times I beat you, you do not want to eat properly. What is wrong with you?”
She can also heard saying, “Die, die. Get lost. Go and die somewhere. You don’t know how to eat.”
Once the woman stopped the beating, the crying girl was seen rubbing her body before walking to another part of the kitchen.
The woman later walks to the kitchen sink, but then goes back and starts beating the girl again.
She is also heard telling the person who recorded the incident to go ahead if “she wanted to take a picture and put it in the newspapers”.
The video ended with the woman telling the girl to go inside a room.
Two other videos have also surfaced showing upset neighbours confronting the woman on why she was beating the child mercilessly.
In a third video, neighbours can be heard saying that the parents of the child are not around and the woman was just looking after the girl.
The lady can also be heard explaining to neighbours that she did not beat the child as badly as they were making it out to be.
Instead the woman claimed that she had just “tapped” the child.
The woman also said that she had adopted the girl.
Meanwhile, Subang Jaya police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohammad Azlin Sadari confirmed the case.
“The victim has been saved. The woman has been arrested,” he said.
