@chipperdays Should this guy get arrested for hitting her? To add some context, she did slap him before this as she cried for him to return her phone. At Paya Lebar Circle Line. #shocked #singapore #violenceisnottheanswer #violence ♬ original sound - ChipperDays

The video

In the video, the pair were seen struggling over an object, which the woman eventually grabbed and threw to the ground.

She was heard crying, “Give me my phone, give me my phone.”

The man then slapped her with the back of his hand.

Although the woman flinched, she continued reaching for her phone.

The man then took the phone from his bag and slammed it onto the ground.

He shouted at her to “go”, and she picked up the phone before leaving the scene.

Meanwhile, at least five bystanders were captured in the background, watching as the confrontation unfolded.

Comments

The comments section was filled with criticism of the bystanders, with many asking why no one had intervened.

Others, however, urged viewers not to jump to conclusions, warning that the short video might not provide the full context of the situation.
