A few days ago, a video of a man belonging to the rural areas of Pakistan was seen beating his wife and daughter. The video was seen all over social media, with Pakistanis demanding this man to be arrested. The man knew he was being videoed – he kept addressing the man behind the lens while inhumanly beating his wife like it was something to be proud of.
In the same video, a man tried to stop him as well, but the perpetrator held his wife as if she was an item.
