Indon maid caught abusing baby on CCTV
After the first video clip, mummy couldn't bear to watch the rest of the videos, it's too heartaching to see a baby who is barely can defend for himself being abused by the maid. Even IF the maid is being ill-treated by the employers, this is no way she should abuse a 2 months old baby like that. Mummy said that the maid can just go to her agency or embassy or even to the police to report that she is being ill-treated. All our hearts go to the poor baby.
As quoted by Dr Lau, a forensic pathologist (from another case of abuse where the baby boy died):
"Even if a child is not abused frequently, he could still die or be maimed for life. A child can be abused for the very first time in his life, but it can also be his last,"
"Parents should never relegate the care of their children to strangers. They should be realistic about the child-minding capabilities of domestic maids who, among other things, are usually required to perform household chores on top of looking after children.
"This was a most tragic and avoidable death of an infant."

The baby's parents were was shocked when they saw recorded images of the maid abusing the baby in her Paya Lebar Crescent home, which were captured by a closed circuit TV they had installed recently.
They filed a police report on Jan 26, and also posted the video recording on YouTube, outraging many Netizens.
The series of six videos (http://youtube.com/user/oreomummi) has attracted more than 36,000 views.
Many who saw the videos bristled with anger.
PrincessJuly83 said in her posting: 'I'm so angry after watching the videos. How can the maid do something inhuman like that?? I'm a mother of 2 and I know how heart breaking it is to see your own baby getting abused liked that. I hope the baby is fine, without any internal or external injuries.'
Another said: 'I am so upset about it. Really angry with the maid. Never comfortable with having maid taking care of baby and young children without other adult around them. Good that you have CCTV and find out early. poor baby.'
Another angry Netizen added: 'Can we know which agency this maid is from? And what is the punishment for this maid?. Hope she doesn't just get away by just sending back to her country. Hope that baby is healthy though.'
The employers said they decided to install the CCTV after reading media reports of maids abusing their young charges.
They were horrified and shocked when the very first video recording they did caught the maid in the violent act.
'The maid appears mild and gentle in front of us. We never suspect she would be so cruel to our baby,' Madam Wong was quoted as saying by an online site.
She decided to put up the video on YouTube to warn other parents who have maids looking other their babies.
