Chinese prosecutors said Monday they had launched criminal proceedings against 28 people suspected of assaulting a group of women in a viral incident that sparked outrage over gender-based violence in the country.

Footage of a group of men assaulting four women at a barbecue restaurant in Tangshan, east of the capital Beijing, was shared widely online, renewing the debate about violence against women in China.Prosecutors in Hebei province said they would begin legal proceedings against the suspects — including seven directly involved in the assault — after they obtained “reliable and sufficient” evidence.

Discussion of feminism has grown in the country despite pressure from its patriarchal society, widespread censorship, and patchy legal support for victims. Two women were hospitalised following the incident and two others sustained minor injuries, authorities said.
