From punching her to throwing household items at her, administration manager Toh Ah Hoon subjected the Indonesian maid to physical abuse for seemingly trivial reasons.
Domestic worker Tri Astuti found herself the target of her employer's anger just over a month into her job.
Ms Tri, 35, started working at Toh's Jalan Damai flat, near Bedok Reservoir Road, on Feb 1 last year. At around 6pm on March 13 last year, Toh was unhappy with the way Ms Tri used cling-wrap for fish and decided to do it herself. While grabbing the cling-wrap box, the Singaporean cut her index finger which began to bleed profusely.
The next day, Toh called for Ms Tri and was unhappy when the maid, who was then cleaning a toilet, failed to respond. Toh threw an empty red pail at the maid and it struck her right cheek.
