缅佣惨虐致死留遗孤 本地善心人士为家属募款逾20万元

缅佣惨虐致死留遗孤   本地善心人士为家属募款逾20万元

24岁缅甸女佣遭雇主残忍虐待,最后不堪残忍虐待活活折磨致死,留下幼子独活在世上,让人感叹。本地不少善心人士闻得此事,纷纷捐善款。短短六天内善款也以逾20万元。

这起虐佣案发生在2016年7月26日,当时缅甸籍女佣磅艾赫多恩(Piang Ngaih Don),被发现死在碧山11街第145座组屋的9楼单位,即雇主的住家,而雇主在缅佣离世后,被指涉嫌虐待女佣,如今案件正待审理,控方要求判处她最高刑罚——终身监禁。

然而,让人感到遗憾的是,磅艾赫多恩离世后,留下了年仅两岁半的儿子在缅甸,自此成为孤儿。

女佣不幸处境令本地民众痛心,纷纷为遗孤捐款。

客工组织“情义之家”(HOME)在Facebook贴文透露,截至昨日(3日),该组织已经接获2551名善心人士的捐款,而募款总额也已达到了20万6565.40元。因此,目前也已暂停接收善款。

情义之家表示,目前正与缅甸大使馆合作,将会安排善款转交到缅佣的家属,且捐款将会全数交到死者家属手上。

残忍手法震惊全国 控方斥雇主惨无人道

本社报道,磅艾赫多恩不仅被雇主拳打脚踢,还让她挨饿,更是将她手绑在窗口铁花上,女佣每天受虐不成人形,临死前其体重甚至降至24公斤。

2016年7月25日晚上,原本在洗衣服的女佣遭被告用拳头打中脖子,导致她瘫痪在厕所。被告的母亲强行把女佣从厕所拖至睡房,母女俩在睡房继续攻击女佣。

在清晨五点左右,被告发现女佣一动不动,一气之下又对女佣拳打脚踢,再用水泼在女佣的脸上,母亲也尝试喂女佣喝东西,但她还是没醒过来。

在一次次的不人道暴虐下,女佣最终承受不住,撒手人寰。

由于雇主虐佣手法极其残忍,控方直指本案的经过十分令人发指,不能仅以残忍和不人道等字眼来形容这起骇人的虐待案件。

“一个人会以这种邪恶不人道的方式对待另一人,这也让法院义愤填膺,因此执法单位必须全力以赴,适当维护本案中的社会基本价值和人类的尊严。”

人力部长杨莉明也在国会中对于本地爆发严重虐佣事件,感到痛心疾首,并表示其团队也已经联系女佣家属,以提供援助。

杨莉明指出,当局多年来都为在我国帮佣的外籍女佣实施了许多保护措施,包括为首次到我国的女佣提供“适应本地生活课程”(Settling-In-Programme),让他们知道需要帮助是可以求助的对象。其中,人力部热线或非政府组织,如职总家庭佣工中心(Centre for Domestic Employees)或外籍女佣援助与技能培训协会(Foreign Domestic Worker Association for Social Support and Training)。
