A 32-year-old man and his 20-year-old wife are expected to appear before a Tunapuna Magistrate this morning charged for willfully assaulting a child.
The couple, who are in the custody of the Maloney Police, were charged at about 11:30pm yesterday.
They are being represented by Defence Attorney Fareed Ali.
Up to 10:30pm yesterday police were still gathering evidence on the case as officers from the Crime Scene Investigative Unit of the TTPS visited the St Joseph home of the couple where the incident allegedly took place.
The officers were photographing the home, and up to 11pm were still interviewing the 32-year-old man in this matter.
The suspects, who are not the child’s parents, were held in a room on the second floor of a two-storey apartment building in Vistabella, San Fernando, on Thursday.
Thhey were held after a video circulated on Facebook showing a man slapping a child repeatedly.
