Housemaid locked up and tortured for 4 years

Kuwaiti police arrested a Lebanese woman accused of locking up her Indonesian housemaid and torturing her for nearly four years.

The maid told police she managed to escape her employer’s house two days ago after she was locked up since she was hired four years ago.

A hospital report showed the maid had been beaten up and tortured by a sharp object, with broken fingers and teeth, burns, and bruises all over her body.

Police immediately arrested the Lebanese woman and sent the maid to hospital for treatment, newspapers said.

The man rushed to the police and returned with several cops and forensic experts, who examined the body and decided it was a suicide.

Police said they were interrogating the man to know the motives for the suicide of that man, also Indian.
