KARACHI:

The Site Super Highway police released on Tuesday a man who was taken into custody after a video of him torturing his wife went viral on social media.

The video was posted on TikTok a few days ago in which the man could be seen torturing his wife.

Area SHO Faisal Jafri said that police acquired information of the whereabouts of Gopal, the man identified in the video. They raided a residence in PTV Society in Scheme 33 on and arrested him. The victim woman told the police that her husband thought she was flirting with another man on her phone. He resorted to physical abuse over that suspicion, police quoted her as saying.

The woman forgave her husband upon assurance that he would not repeat such behaviour in the future.

SHO Jafri said the police released the man after the wife assured them that he would appear for any legal action if required.
