Violent Attack Caught on Camera
A video showing a muscular man attacking a thinner man with heavy punches, leaving the latter bleeding on the ground, went viral across the internet, prompting police to investigate. They arrested the 31-year-old man who carried out the attack and the 35-year-old woman who recorded it.
The video, approximately one minute long, began circulating on Tuesday (6 May 2025).
It shows a thin man in yellow meeting a muscular man wearing a green long-sleeved shirt and black pants. According to the video’s narration, the incident might be related to a loan business.

In the footage, the yellow-shirted man hands over a bag presumably containing cash to the muscular man, then looks down to enter information on his phone.
Before attacking, the muscular man asks, “how much,” and after hearing the yellow-shirted man reply in English, “seventy-two six hundreds,” he passes the bag to the person filming for inspection.
He then throws several heavy punches, knocking the yellow-shirted man down, before moving closer to continue the assault.
The muscular man landed 24 blows in just about ten seconds before finishing with a kick to the yellow-shirted man’s face.
The victim’s face was repeatedly struck, leaving him bleeding heavily.
The Aftermath
The Singapore Police Force issued a statement on Wednesday (7 May 2025) evening, saying they received a report around 1:20 PM on Tuesday.
Police and narcotics officers later conducted a raid in the Sengkang West Way area, arresting both individuals on charges of conspiracy to cause grievous hurt and suspected drug abuse.
Authorities later seized various weapons, including two machetes, an axe, a baseball bat, as well as three mobile phones, over $3,000 in cash, 14 electronic cigarettes, and more than 450 electronic cigarette accessories.
