Police believe the two may have known each other, as the footage suggests they were acquainted.
The video, reportedly recorded by a bystander, has also sparked debate over public apathy. Despite the alleged assault at a busy railway station, police said no commuter intervened to stop the attack or came forward to help the woman.
Officials further said the woman has not approached the police to lodge a complaint. Police are continuing efforts to identify both individuals and ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident.
