BATU PAHAT: A 44-year-old man who was filmed physically abusing his wife by the road near a toll plaza here has been arrested.
Batu Pahat OCPD Asst Comm Din Ahmad said police arrested the man at his home in Taman Sri Kluang at around 7.30pm on Monday.
He said the arrest was made soon after a report was lodged over the incident.
ACP Din said the man admitted that he had used his shoe to hit his wife by the side of the road near the Ayer Hitam toll plaza “because she likes to nag”.
The incident came to light when a minute-long video showing the man repeatedly hitting his wife was uploaded onto the Durian Kopi O Facebook page last Friday.
