Vengeful Singapore employers framing their maids...

It was nine months of hell for Filipino maid Juvy.

In April 2014, she filed a complaint with the Ministry of Manpower for non-payment of salary. But her employer then filed a police report against her, accusing her of theft.

When no evidence was found, the charge was dropped. But her employer did not stop there, filing another police report accusing her of child molest.

Again, in October, the case was closed. So the employer filed another claim of theft against her. This, too, was later dropped by the police.

Throughout this time, Juvy stayed at a shelter at Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (Home).

For the nine months she was under investigation, she was barred from finding work and could only wait until investigation concluded. Full story...
