Hong Kong police arrested five young people on suspicion of slapping them again and again for a 14 -year -old girl at a shopping center last year after a video on the Internet went.
The force said on Saturday that it had received a report the previous day on a debate about “trivial matters” in a back staircase of the Mong Cook shopping center in August last year, when it was claimed that the teenage girl slapped several times.
A video that has been widely shared on social media shows a girl surrounded by a group of young people who slap her at least 15 times, while encouraging others to “slap more difficult”. Some of them can also hear it.
The Mong Cook Crime Band in Mong Province launched an investigation, with the officers arrested four male and suspects, between the ages of 15 and 22, on Friday and Saturday to attack actual physical harm.
They are detained for more investigation.
A source said that the girl was attacked in Golden Era Plaza on Sai Yi Street, and at least eight people were involved, with some of her colleagues in the classroom.
