In the video, the man—who appeared naked—was surrounded and assaulted by several individuals. Reports claim that he allegedly tried to seduce his friend during a visit, which led the friend to raise an alarm.

Neighbors and co-tenants reportedly rushed to the scene after hearing the commotion. Upon entering the room, they allegedly found the man naked, leading to the physical attack.

Eyewitnesses claimed that despite the beatings, the man remained visibly aroused, which further fueled anger among the attackers.
