Domestic Violence: Chinese women savagely abused in a Chinese restaurant

The shocking video of women being abused in a Chinese restaurant has sparked a debate about misogynistic violence in the country.

In a restaurant, nine guys viciously assaulted a group of four females after one of them refused to be sexually harassed.

A man is seen approaching over to a seated woman and placing his hand on her back in CCTV footage obtained in the northeastern city of Tangshan.

He continues to stand over her even when she pushes his hand away, smacking her in the face when she asks him to leave.

Several more guys participate in the assault, with one being battered with a chair and another being carried out of the restaurant by her hair.

According to sources, it happened about 2.40 a.m. on June 10.

Officials said two women suffered non-life threatening injuries and were being treated in a hospital.

According to a police update, all nine suspects in the case had been apprehended as of Saturday afternoon, and an investigation is underway.

The video went viral on Chinese social media, bringing attention to violence against women in China.

The video took up six of the top trending topic spaces on Weibo, which has over half a million subscribers.

State television, in a quick online commentary, urged for the culprits to be harshly punished.

On Saturday, a widely circulated WeChat post questioned the official characterization of the assault as a simple act of violence.

The anonymous post said: ‘This happened in a society where violence against women is rampant …To ignore and suppress the perspective of gender is to deny the violence that people – as women – suffer.’

5 men in Tangshan, Hebei province, brutally assaulted a woman in a restaurant after she turned down unwanted attention from one of them. The woman suffered serious injuries, and the attack has sparked furious demands to address misogyny in China.

China Women’s News, published by the All-China Women’s Federation, said in a commentary on Saturday that ‘there can only, and must only, be zero tolerance for such vicious cases of serious violations of women’s rights and interests’.

The suffering of a lady in Feng County, Jiangsu’s eastern region, sparked a public outcry in February after she was seen chained by the neck in a viral video on social media.

Social media users were outraged by the terrible footage of the woman, who was supposedly kept in a garden hut while her husband and children lived in a house.

Officials first remained silent, but under public pressure, the Communist Party eventually launched an investigation.
