A 41-year-old Filipino domestic worker was arrested on Sunday on suspicion of stealing cash that her employer had stashed in his apartment in Kowloon Tong.
At 10pm, a 50-year-old man reported to Hong Kong police that he could not find the equivalent of around US$25,600 in cash he had stored in his home at Phoenix Court on Broadcast Drive, Sing Tao Daily reported. The cash included Hong Kong and foreign currencies.
It was understood that the maid had suddenly claimed she needed to attend to an urgent matter at home in the Philippines and asked her boss to buy her an air ticket, Apple Daily reported.
Feeling suspicious, the woman’s employer checked a drawer of the dining table where the cash should have been, and it was gone.
He suspected that his domestic worker had stolen the money, and he called the police.
After an initial investigation, police arrested the maid on suspicion of theft. Kowloon City Police Station is following up the case.
Kinuha b talga nung pinay sbi sa blita suspect plang ibig sbihin Hindi p n papatunayan …
Pain yan sa kanya..kaso di nya inisip na pain…ako noong nasahohhot inner mongolia pko..isang malaking box ng tanduay na punong puno ng pera nilagay sa mesa ng sala..1 week bago nila kinuha yun.then isang malaking paper bag ulit ang iniwan sa lalagyan ng damit ng bata..pero everytime na pumapasok ako sa room pra maglinis..pag lumalabas nako tinataas ko 2 kamay ko para mkita nila sa cam na wala akong kinuha..pain yan sa ka ya..kaso makati lang talaga kamay nya..
Maniwala namn kau kung my nakita cyng katibayan tlaga na katulong niya nag nakaw ok pero hakahaka malabo yan mahrap din kac magbintang na walang katibayan malay natin na misplace lng niya
Anicel Corpuz Lopez ..ok lng yan minsan kasi mga amu ko ditu ganun din minsan nga bundle by bundle na pira kasi may negusyo sila.sa tagal ng pira dyan di ko nag attempt na kumuha kahit one dollar.mirung taong ganyan malaki tiwala ..
Di pa natin alam ang side ng Kababayan natin kya wag natin siyang husgahan.Example lang po itong amo ko sabi niya nakita daw niya yong pera at alahas ng asawa niya sa cabinit drawer 3 weeks ago(last yr) pero di niya maalala na 3 weeks ago din ibinigay niya sa anak niya para itago sA bahay ng anak niya..
We can not tell what is the truth an employer just put big amount of money in a drawer….lol
Wag muna kau mghusga kc hindi natin alam kng totoo ang paratang o hindi…
De pa naman napapatunayan… kaya wag muna tayong humusga
Nawala ung pera tapos biglang mgpapaalam ung pinay na uuwi? Malamang paghihinalaan na xa or lets look at the other side na ayaw na ng pinay sa kanila kaya gusto umuwi tpos gnawan ng kasalanan para mgstay at ang mgging consequence is she will go to jail or serve them again.. We dont know the real story so wag muna husgahan.kung kasalanan man ng pinay well nkakahiya kasi lahat tayu damay..kung kagagawan nmn ng amo kahiahinala.. Based sa nabasa ko naaresto na pero wala pa din result if nkuha ung pera sa pinay o may prove sila na pinay ang kumuha.. Its my opinion lang ha..
Love dont hate!
so funny they can easily tell whether the helper is Indonesian,Sri Lankan or Filipina when something unlawful has been done,while during heroic situation,the news will just write DOMESTIC HELPER! so why do u keep big amount of money in a dining drawer?not unless you really are trying to bait your helper,and since the helper has been weak from temptation,she took it… i dont know.what else to say.ww
Sobra bait po mga amo nya…Trust n trust po talaga..tagal nya n po ngwowork kanila..
ang una kong amo drawer nila sa Dining ang lagayan nila ng mga US at England dollars,akala ko din sinusubok lang ako pero hindi,doon talaga sila naglalagay ….nasa business kasi sila.
