Two suspects allegedly punched and struck the victim’s face and body with their hands and a television, while another pulled and cut her hair, threatening her with a pair of scissors.

The fight was broken up by the victim’s brother, who arrived at the scene shortly after, AC Jasmin said.
Additionally, the victim claimed that her jewellery — consisting of a gold bracelet and a pair of earrings worth an estimated RM4,000 (S$1,217) — went missing and was believed to have been taken by one of the suspects.
5 suspects arrested by police
Further investigations revealed that the victim, a single mother and online cosmetic seller, knew a man from the same village and had been in a romantic relationship with him for about a month.
“The incident was caused by accusations that the victim was a homewrecker. However, the victim claimed she was unaware that her boyfriend was married,” he explained.
The five suspects — comprising of two locals and three Indonesians, aged between 16 and 62 — have been arrested by local police.
Investigations are ongoing.
