Pinay Maid in HK Accused of Molesting Employers’ Kid
A Filipino domestic helper in Hong Kong is in hot water for allegedly molesting her employers’ child on a weekly basis for almost two years, reports said.
The crime, according to a report on the South China Morning Post, was committed between 2011 and 2013 in a Kwai Chung flat.
The report did not identify the Filipina for legal reasons, but described her as a 45-year-old who came to Hong Kong for work in 2011.
The Filipina faced the District Court on Wednesday where she pleaded not guilty to three counts of indecent assault, saying she is a lesbian who had had two girlfriends in Hong Kong, the South China Morning Post report said.
A separate report on Eji Insight said the boy, who was only eight years old when he was first molested, had told the court that the maid had fondled his private parts and had sex with him.
The boy, whose father is a police officer, reportedly said he had no idea what the suspect was doing to him during those occasions, and that he only understood them last year when he was taught sex education in school.
The boy, whose identify was also withheld for legal reasons, said he kept the incident secret to his parents at first as he did not want the maid to leave their family. He said his parents badly needed a helper.
The suspect served as the boy’s nanny since he began attending kindergarten until the termination of her contract in April 2013. —Rie Takumi/KBK, GMA News
