A teenage girl’s brutal beating by three girls in a Sengkang carpark on Tuesday evening is being investigated by the police, after videos of the incident were circulated on social media.
In the videos, the trio can be seen punching, kicking, slapping and throwing rubber sandals at the victim, who tries to protect herself by covering her face.
Two teenage boys, who are standing nearby, do not intervene during the attack.
Three girls, all aged 15, have been arrested for wrongful confinement and are under investigation for voluntarily causing hurt.
The police said they were alerted to the incident at about 9.30pm on Tuesday.
