A Singapore couple have denied that they forced their maid from Myanmar to drink water mixed with floor cleaner, hit her head on the floor and then pour hot water over herself.
Lim Toon Leng, 43, and his wife Linda Seah Lei Sie, 38, pleaded not guilty in a Singapore court on Monday to five counts of voluntarily causing injury and another charge of causing injury with a poisonous substance, Lianhe Zaobao reported.
The couple, who own and operate a beauty salon called Anew Me in The Centrepoint shopping mall on Orchard Road, were accused of abusing the maid in an apartment in Punggol Walk between August and October 2016.
A prosecutor told the court that Seah ordered Myanmar national Phyu Phyu Mar to drink water mixed with floor cleaner and knock her head on the floor. She also allegedly told the maid to pour hot water on herself.
On October 13, 2016, Seah allegedly pulled the woman’s hair and hit her with a mobile phone, injuring her left eye, left hand and forehead. On the same day, Lim allegedly punched the victim twice on her forehead.
The maid’s injuries were seen the following day by a female staff member, who notified the police.
Crazy employer shame on yoi
You deserve to go to jail
Sick in the head

domestic helpers are also human like employers too,we are not animals same as u..we have two hands and two feet…if u let ur maid drink water with floor cleaner then the employer should drink too..if u hit ur maid then the employer must be hit by the maid too…we are all humans treat each other as a brothers and sisters even we have different races.if the employer dnt treat her/ his maid then that is discrimination. shame on you.
Some charges “not guilty”…good luck for the final verdict of other charges.
Then the verdict is not guilty…. Cge lang pananagutan ninyo sa dios someday…..
Why lah so cruel !!!. The maid is a human with feelings not to be abused according to your whims and fancies. Karma will get back to you

Hearrless & stupid employer!You don’t deserve any help at all.Why didn’t you return to her agency if you’re not happy with her?Why must you illtreat her?she is a daughter of someone,a sister of someone just like you.If other people do that to you or to your loved ones,will you be happy?I hope you will pay the prize for what you did to this poor girl.Salute to the kind lady who reported the incident to the police.Thank you ma’am.
It ain’t because you’re rich and the Myanmar lady was poor and only your helper means you already have the right to treat her abusively.
A devil in human mask…that are what the couple are.To get rid of the devil,squeeze them into a bottle and throw the bottle into the sea so that there will be no more contact with human.
