A man in a viral video who was beaten by a woman now identified as his girlfriend has broken his silence.
According to the physically assaulted man, he did not retaliate when his girlfriend was assaulting him because he feared being arrested.
The man is quoted by Metro TV to have stated, “I feared arrest, so I didn’t hit her back”.
Also speaking in an interview with Kumasi-based Ezra TV, later shared on X, the man explained the genesis of the attack.
He revealed that the misunderstanding has to do with a phone she promised to get her girlfriend after she complained about her phone being spoiled.
The man explained, “I have lived with her for four months. About a week ago, she came to visit me and complained about her phone. I asked her to see a friend of mine who sells phones so she could get another one.
When she got there, my friend’s phone was off, so she thought I was lying to her. When she returned, some gentlemen were in my house, and they told her that I always buy phones for ladies. That’s why she got angry and started beating me”.
He further revealed the woman’s occupation, saying, “She cooks food for galamseyers at Tepa.”
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has busted a woman seen in a viral video assaulting a man.
According to the Police, the suspect has been identified as Esther Nana Afia Sarfowaa.
The Police revealed she was arrested at Subriso in the Ahafo Ano North Constituency of the Ashanti Region.
UTV Ghana sharing the news on X wrote, “The police have arrested a woman seen in a viral video assaulting a man.
The suspect, Esther Nana Afia Sarfowaa, was arrested at Subriso in the Ahafo Ano North Constituency of the Ashanti Region. A second suspect, Stephen Ofori, was arrested at Nkawie for his role in the incident.
Both are currently in custody, while authorities continue to search for three other suspects still at large”.
The arrest follows the disturbing video that surfaced on social media of a young Ghanaian woman assaulting a young man mercilessly.
In the viral video shared by SIKAOFFICIAL on X, the young woman was captured slapping the man, insulting him in the process as well.
The woman, throughout the beating assault, stated, “You are foolish, didn’t they teach you sense”.
She later picked up her slippers and continued to assault the man, with some group of men looking on, only trying to tell the woman to stop.
The assaulted man was later scolded by his colleagues in the presence of the woman.

“I’ve dated her for four months. I promised to buy her a new phone and told her to meet a dealer in Adum. When she couldn’t reach him, she thought I lied. She came home, and my friends handed me over to her to beat me.”
