"On Feb 25, this maid from Myanmar named Khing (not her real name), aged 24 years according to her passport was transferred from Changi General Hospital to Singapore General Hospital's ward 43 Burn Centre as she had been abused by her employer.
"One of her neighbours had informed to police and they had gone to the house in Tampines to investigate.
"They found that she had many scratch marks on her face, many scratch marks and human bites on her hands, blisters on her back and both buttocks caused by people throwing hot water onto her.
"She also couldn't walk well because her legs are swollen due having been kicked by her employer apparently while wearing big boots.
"Her head also had been hit with a coffee mug.
"Police had sent her to CGH via ambulance on Feb 22. I had gone to see her on Mar 2 at SGH.
"I was shocked when I saw this little skinny girl, and I couldn't control my tears. She is suffering a lot and was mentally and physically traumatised.
"Actually she was born in 1995, so she is only 16 years old. She was discharged from SGH on Mar 2 and sent to a shelter home arranged for her by medical social workers and police.
