A video posted on Instagram shows a man shouting at a woman at a taxi stand.

A police officer is seen trying to talk to the man but he continues to shout at the woman and is heard saying: "You say you want to call the police, what did I do wrong?"

He then proceeds to slap his own head and even bangs it against a notice board at the bus stop.

As the officer tries to get the man to walk away, he turns back and slaps the woman's face.

The officer immediately grabs the man's arm and pulls him away before his colleague steps in and helps to restrain him.
