Human rights activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, has revealed that the man accused of assaulting an 18-year-old lady in a viral abuse video is now in police custody, while disclosing that she was taken away as a child and that her father was unaware of any alleged marriage.
Gwamnishu disclosed the development in an update shared on Instagram on Tuesday, stating that preliminary findings also indicated that the lady identified as ‘Chisom’ was 15 years old when her relationship with the suspect reportedly began.
The update follows a disturbing video that surfaced on Monday showing a visibly injured young woman, said to be an 18-year-old wife.
The footage showed the woman with apparent facial injuries as a man identified as her husband exchanged words with neighbours who confronted him over the alleged abuse.
A separate video later surfaced showing the woman at what appeared to be a hospital alongside Gwamnishu.
