Housemaid prosecuted for abusing 1-month-old boy in Hanoi

(Dan Tri) - With evidence of frequently hitting a 1-month-old baby boy in Cau Giay (Hanoi), Ms. L. was prosecuted.

On December 26, a leader of the Cau Giay District Police (Hanoi) said that the unit had prosecuted and temporarily detained Ms. NTL (57 years old, from Tuyen Quang) to clarify the act of abusing a 1-month-old boy.

Previously, Ms. HY (35 years old, Nghia Do ward) filed a complaint with the ward police about her 1-month-old son being abused by the maid.

Reviewing all the camera data, the mother discovered that the female maid NTL often hit the child's body hard, shook him from side to side, and then threw him onto the bed.

"I never expected that the first time I hired a maid, I would witness such cruel acts towards a child," Ms. Y. was indignant.

According to her, every time she hit the child, Ms. L. chose to sit with her back to the camera. When she was hired, the maid knew that the family had installed a camera in the children's room.

After the incident, the landlord immediately paid her salary and asked Ms. L. to leave his house. The maid and her relatives called to apologize, however, Ms. Y.'s family did not want to reconcile and did not want Ms. L. to have the opportunity to continue to "attack" other children.

The family took the boy to the National Children's Hospital for a check-up. After X-rays and tests, the doctor said that no abnormalities were found but that they needed to monitor him for shaken baby syndrome. The boy was still young, so the family took him home and waited for a follow-up check-up in a few days.
