It was reported earlier that a famous cosmetics entrepreneur hit his two-year-old adopted child in a bid to create content for his social media channel.
The incident reportedly occurred two months ago at the entrepreneur's residence here.
According to Berita Harian, the man slapped the two-year-old with his hand because he wanted to film the child crying to create content for his social media channel.
The daily added that a police report was made regarding the incident, with the complainant saying that the entrepreneur asked her to put the child in a shoe closet and join him in hitting her.
The complainant, however, said she refused as she was afraid the child would be hurt.
A police report pertaining to a child abuse case linking cosmetics entrepreneur Datuk Seri Aliff Syukri and his adopted daughter has been circulating online.
Aliff's Instagram account was also flooded with comments from people asking for an explanation. - Star
