A 36-year-old woman has reported her maid to police for allegedly bathing her two children with cold water in Chai Wan on Tuesday.
The woman surnamed Lui, found her 31-year-old domestic worker planning to bath her daughter, aged 4, and one-year-old son at 9am in a flat in Bayview Park on Hong Man Street in Chai Wan, Headline Daily reported.
However, the mother discovered that the maid only had cold water in the bathtub and had not added any warmer water.
Hong Kong has been suffering a cold snap recently and temperatures in urban areas dropped to 8 degrees Celsius on Tuesday morning.
The woman reported the case to police as she suspected that the domestic worker, whose nationality was not disclosed, had “abused” her two children.
After an initial investigation, officers found that the woman was in a dispute with the domestic worker over her employment contract, Oriental Daily reported.
But police found the two children did not touch any cold water. Officers believed that the case was not child abuse and classed it as a dispute. No one was arrested.
It was understood that the employer contacted the employment agency after the incident and terminated the maid’s contract.

Abnormal naman talaga mga employers.walang kakontentuhan sa helper, kaya ginagawa nila ng paran para mahirapan at paalisin.habang tumawag all sa amo lalong dumadami ang trabaho.kahit holiday tambak ang trabaho.mga among abusado
What the hell…! Why do the employer need to accuse the maid of doing something bad. If she wants to end the maid’s contract then just go on..talk in a nice way
Crazy
Xsample ng mga among praning, gumagawa ng dahilan para ibreak ang kontrata ng kunyang nila, nakakaloka!
thats the employer excuses so many employers are crazy
crazy employer..if they dont want a helper
then why u hire?if u cant trust other people around you then take care ur own,shit! shame on you。..the karma coming to you Mr/Mrs employer!
Her employer are crazy stupid.making a way to terminate her maid.
Some employer put ther belonging to the bag of helper then accusing for stealing this kind of employer is stupid liar and over reacted.
Just like that?poor maid cannot do anything while she is doing her job??sad
same old crap.some employers fabricate stories against their helper when they have argument or.dispute with their worker.for them to have reasons to terminate or worst to worst they will charge the innocent worker.most chinese employers are like that.their heart and mind is not really.good.instead of just appreciating or trying to be nice to their worker coz somehow without helper their.house is a mess.or they cant go to work without helper doing their "parents responsibility" for their kids or their elders..
