A 24-year-old maid in Singapore, Piang Ngaih Don, climbed out of a corridor window to visit a coffee shop. This prompted members of her employer’s family to send messages in a group chat wishing she had jumped down and died instead. The maid later died nine months after prolonged abuse under her employer, Kevin Chelvam, a suspended police staff sergeant.
DOG
Chelvam is currently on trial for four charges, including voluntarily causing hurt and abetment of voluntarily causing grievous hurt to Piang Ngaih Don by starvation. Messages revealed insults and cruel remarks about the maid’s condition in the family group chat. Chelvam’s wife and mother are also expected to testify as prosecution witnesses during the trial. After wishing her dead, they said she was worst than a dog! Very bad #relationships can lead to bad consequences. This a vivid example.
