The groom, who was captured in a viral video hitting his bride at their wedding reception, has been charged over the attack.

The bride won a competition to unwrap sweets that had been organized by guests at their wedding that was held in the southern region of Surkhandaryo in Uzbekistan on June 6.

When the groom realized he had lost, he aggressively hit his new bride, who was later led off the stage by two women.

The video sparked outrage online, with many berating the groom for already physically abusing his wife only minutes after she was pronounced his wife.
