#ArrestNzomo: Kenyans Demand the Arrest of Man Captured on Camera Brutally Assaulting Wife [VIDEO]

Police are hunting for a Makueni man captured on camera brutally assaulting a woman reported to be his wife.

The video went viral online sparking outrage from social media users who demanded his arrest using hashtag #ArrestNzomo.

The man, identified as Daudi Nzomo Manyenze, beat wife Evelyne Mwende over alleged infidelity. Evelyn is said to be Nzomo’s second wife, with other reports claiming she's underage.

In the video, the man is seen mercilessly kicking and slapping Evelyn as onlookers watch in dismay. She later collapses. Evelyn is currently admitted at Makueni Referral Hospital.

@Gmmunyoki said: "He is not fit to live amongst us because there are several accounts he should face from this clip: Molestation, Attempted murder, Torture, Marrying underage, Threatening ones life, Please let us stand in unity and call for the arrest of NZOMO#ArrestNzomo"

@Naitwabenedict said:" #ArrestNzomo Arrest the animal now! Who's the chief of that area and how come he has not delivered him to the authorities? Men in that area should not go to bed this night until the guy is captured!"

@mosy8019 noted: " #ArrestNzomo Nzomo is the true manifestation of a beast. This kind of barbarism is unequalled and negates humanity. It is time we have a man talk with such villains and we teach them how to treat women with love and dignity."

@Erastus_Maleve tweeted: "The most humiliating video to watch today is that Nzomo Video.Whoever he is , whatever he had smoked, whoever had cursed him ,whatever thing he would blame that woman for ,i don't care .That lady deserves justice. #ArrestNzomo now."

@shirleymwende1 said: "It's really heartbreaking to see people stand and watch someone mercilessly hitting a lady, begging him to stop like they can't force him to. God have mercy on us. #arrestnzomo."

@MianoJN said:" #ArrestNzomo and #ArrestNzomoNow should have happened immediately this vid went viral. What is @NPSOfficial_KE waiting for? We don't and will never keep quiet #GBV matters."

Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji has since ordered for the arrest of the man.

“The DPP’s attention has been drawn to a viral video clip of a man assaulting a woman in Makueni. Consequently the DPP has directed the @DCI_Kenya to immediately have suspect arrested & arraigned before court @fidakenya @CREAWKenya,” read a tweet from the DPP’s office.

“The DPP further directed that those who watched and participated in the unacceptable brutality be arrested and arraigned in court too @DCI_Kenya @fidakenya @CREAWKenya,” added another tweet.
