KUALA LUMPUR: Police have arrested a man for allegedly assaulting his wife after she supposedly ignored his call to help with the housework at their home in Jalan Perdana 3/10, Pandan Perdana, Ampang on Monday (Jan 29).
Ampang Jaya Police chief ACP Mohd Azam Ismail said that following the incident, the 36-year-old man was arrested around Pandan Perdana at 6.20 pm yesterday.
He said that preliminary investigations found that the victim, who is an interior designer, had an argument with her husband at about 9.30 am.
"The suspect then destroyed her laptop and hit her until she suffered injuries to her right hand. He became angry because she did not help him with their house chores," he said in a statement today.
