A 35-year-old operator of a maid cafe in Hong Kong's Mong Kok, Cheung, has been arrested for allegedly molesting a 14-year-old employee who began working at the establishment on August 7. The victim alleged that Cheung touched her multiple times, beginning on her first day, including hugging her around the waist, molesting her, making her sit on his lap for intimate photos, and touching her on the waist and breasts.
The incident was reported to the police on Friday, and the case is currently being investigated by the Mong Kok crime squad. Maid cafes in Hong Kong are themed restaurants inspired by Japanese subculture, where staff dress in maid costumes and cater to a customer base primarily consisting of anime, manga, and gaming fans.
