ANN/THE STRAITS TIMES – A fight over an alleged debt of NTD20,000 (SGD870) left one woman with serious burns to her face and neck after another used boiling soup as a weapon against her on Friday morning at a karaoke lounge in Taiwan.
A video circulating on social media shows two women trading blows in a room in an entertainment venue while a seated man watches, as the music video for MJ116’s Hot Chick plays on a screen.
Another man is seen getting involved by pulling the hair of one of the women – dressed in a white top – and dragging her across the room. He kicks her repeatedly, while she in turn pulls the hair of the other woman, who is wearing a grey crop top.
As the woman in grey manages to break loose, she picks up a pot of visibly steaming soup off a portable stove and pours its contents over the woman in the white top. The aggressor then flings the empty vessel at the victim’s head, causing the latter to scream as the woman in grey takes the opportunity to land more blows.
