An eyewitness saw a woman hurting her son through their bedroom window, videotaped the incident and shared the content online, according to The Beijing News. The police said that the treatment was only discipline, and did not constitute abuse.
The footage shows the mother pinning the boy onto the bed, with his hands apparently bound behind his back, while he flails and screams wildly under her. The footage was recorded by a neighbor in the same housing complex in Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, China on June 26, according to The Beijing News.
