Moving forward, we found multiple Malaysian media reports regarding this incident. According to the report, “In the 67-second video, a long-haired man was seen verbally and physically abusing a woman, believed to be his new wife, by dragging her by the hair and kicking her in the face”.

These reports identify the man in the video as Reduan Mahmood, who was charged under Section 323 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt to Adrina Mohd Ariff by hitting and kicking her at their home in Batu 9, Cheras, on 14 November 2022. 

This indicates that the video is not recent and it has no connection to India. Taking account of these evidences, we can understand that the video is old, dating back to 2022, and originates from Malaysia is being shared with a false claim.

Conclusion-

Fact Crescendo found that the claim made along the video to be False. This is an old video from Malaysia and it dates back to November 2022. It is unrelated to India.
