The_King Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 SINGAPORE - The police have arrested a 30-year-old maid for hurting a 16-month-old toddler under her care. The maid was arrested on Jan 15 at her employer's home at Block 992B Buangkok Link. Details of the incident surfaced on Tuesday (Jan 21) after Facebook user Amy Low, 40, uploaded a 46-second-long video recording from a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera in her home. The footage shows the maid dipping the toddler's left hand into a pot on the stove repeatedly. The baby girl is heard crying in the video. The video has since been viewed more than 218,000 times. Speaking to The Straits Times on Wednesday, Ms Low, an accountant, who has another eight-year-old daughter, said the incident happened on Jan 14. "My whole body was shaking when I saw the recording," she said. "(Since the incident), every night my daughter cries and cries non-stop, and she's too young to speak so we don't know if she's having nightmares or still in so much pain," she added. She said that the maid was from Myanmar and was employed on Dec 7 last year. In the Facebook post, Ms Low wrote in Chinese that the maid had initially claimed that the toddler had accidentally touched the hot cooking pot in the kitchen. However after viewing the footage, the maid told her that she had hurt the child so she could go home. Ms Low called the police after viewing the video and the maid was arrested, she told ST. The police are investigating the incident as voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous means. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/police-arrest-maid-after-cctv-recording-shows-her-dipping-toddlers-hand-in 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 3rd indo maid knows how to behave and work well in front of me but she behaved in another way when i was not around. Saw the cctv clip that she purposely moved the cctv (which i had put on the tall table in the living room)around to point in another direction in early morning so that i cannot see what she is doing. Currently my burmese maid is my 5th maid. But i still don't trust her even though she is hardworking(just started work for 2 weeks) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
