This incident caught on camera by a netizen named Richar Guinucay showing violence between a husband and wife is making buzz in social media.
It’s a hard pill to swallow, but it doesn’t make it any less true. Battery within married couples still exist to date, and perhaps has gotten even worse. More often than not, this is carried out in the privacy of their own homes, shut from the eyes and scrutiny of the public. Sometimes, however, violence between husbands and wives can happen before our very eyes right when we least expect it.
Take this incident caught by a certain Richard Guinucay on his camera phone.
Last Sunday, April 8, the concerned netizen took to Facebook to share a 1-minute clip of a husband beating his wife in public. While there was no context provided, it was pretty clear that the couple was arguing about the former’s jeepney.
In the video, the man was obviously forcing his wife to get inside the vehicle as they were in the middle of the road, but the latter refused. He then unleashed his anger and frustration on her through a series of slaps, punches, hair pulling, and a furious tongue lashing. At one point, the husband, who couldn’t be held back, even threw her mobile phone to the ground.
Soon enough, a traffic enforcer and a few onlookers approached the couple. Seeing that this was her opportunity to escape, the wife then immediately went inside a nearby taxi.
Even in the presence of a peace officer, the husband didn’t hold back from cursing at his wife, before driving away with his jeepney.
“P******** mo. Ikinahihiya mo ako sa trabaho ko. P******** mo talaga.”
Meanwhile, the man has since drawn flak from the public, with netizens arguing that they didn’t need context to know that what he did to his wife was wrong. Even Richard himself condemned the husband by encouraging others to share the clip for it to reach the authorities.
