A viral video showing three men viciously assaulting a woman in an alley has prompted a police appeal for information. The attackers are still unidentified, and the location of the incident remains unclear.
The police are seeking the public's assistance in identifying a group of men seen in a video viciously beating a woman. The violent clip, which the police published to its X, gathered about one million views since it was posted on 8 January. The police have appealed for information after a now-viral video showed three men viciously beating a woman. It shows three unknown men ruthlessly beating the woman with their open hands while a fourth person films the vicious attack.
The woman, who appears in pink summer pyjamas and has her hair braided, tries in vain to block repeated blows to her face, head, and body. Though unintelligible, her attackers, two of whom were spotting beanies and another a cap, can be heard mumbling some words to her during the assault. At one point in the 25-second clip, one of the men grabs her from behind and throws her onto rocks on the ground. It is unclear where the footage was taken, but it appeared to happen in an alley. In the background, taxis are parked in a dusty, open field. The police appealed to the public for assistance in identifying the area and the woman's attackers. Not much more is known about the incident. 'The South African Police Service (SAPS) requests the public to assist with information about where the gender-based violence and femicide (GBVF) incident in the video circulating on social media happened.' Police request anyone with information about the perpetrators to contact #CrimeStop on 086 001 0111 or share information on the #MySAPSApp.
