The incident occurred when the employer, residing in a unit on Telok Blangah Road, asked the maid to take him out for dinner at night. When the maid refused and the employer tried to use a cane to reach the door, the maid grabbed the cane and engaged in a struggle with her employer, which lasted around 20 seconds.
During the altercation, the employer lost his balance, fell on the floor, and struck his head against the wall. CCTV footage captured the entire incident. The maid, who later pleaded guilty to reckless assault, was sentenced to eight weeks in jail. She was also hospitalized for treatment and observation, receiving platelet transfusions to prevent further complications from a subdural haemorrhage and a scalp laceration.
