The police arrested two individuals including the owner of an elderly welfare home here following a complaint of an elderly man being beaten there.
Kulim District Police Chief, Superintendent Mohd Azizul Mohd Khairi said the 44-year-old man was arrested along with a 36-year-old woman who was a maid at the welfare home at 11.30 last night.
He said the arrest was made following a complaint from a woman at 3.50pm yesterday about an elderly man being beaten with a stick.
"There are four video recordings showing an elderly person being beaten that went viral on social media," he said here today.
According to him, the result of the investigation found that the cause of the incident was due to the 70-year-old victim who allegedly often caused problems due to senility.
"The police are still investigating if there are other victims who were also beaten at the welfare home," he explained.
He added that the two suspects were remanded for three days starting today with the case being investigated according to 324 of the Penal Code
