The video which had been uploaded via Liveleak, had according to reports, been captured in Brazil.

The video footage shows the woman dragging the mistress by the hair, as she did all in her power to stop their progress towards the bridge.

The mistress seemed to be pleading desperately in Portuguese as she was dragged closer to the bridge.

Another woman, who is assumed to have been a friend of the wife, had then stepped forward, only to assist her in throwing the mistress over the side of the bridge which seemed roughly 10 feet high off the ground.
