Filipino maid made to kowtow 100 times by Hong Kong boss...

A Filipino maid was grabbed by the hair, had her head pushed to the floor and was ordered to kowtow 100 times for serving up a partly cooked meal, the Tsuen Wan Magistrates Court was told yesterday.

Her employer Henry Kwok Wai- keung, 42, was fined HK$5,000 and ordered to pay his maid Julieta Binggas Selga HK$3,000 as compensation after he admitted one count of common assault.

However, deputy magistrate Li Chi- ho adjourned sentencing of Kwok's wife, Wan Sau-yee, to July 16, pending probation and community service reports, but warned she could face a stiffer penalty as her part in the maid's punishment was more serious. More...
