Onlookers attempted to intervene in the alleged abuse, which is not believed to have stopped there.
Later that night it is alleged Zayat kicked his wife’s door down and police from Broadmeadows Police Station were called to the home.
At Melbourne Magistrates’ Court when applying for bail Mr Zayat told Magistrate John Doherty: ‘The way I acted that day was very stupid … I overreacted with my wife.’
He has been charged with ten offences, which includes recklessly causing injury and making threats to kill.
Zayat was remanded in custody and is due to reappear before the court on Monday for a filing hearing.
