Child Abuse: Woman Scalds Maid With Hot Water For Sleeping On Her Couch

The International Federation Of Women Lawyers, FIDA, has arrested a certain Christiana Eze, 31, for pouring hot water on her 13-year-old housemaid, Beauty. According to reports, Eze allegedly scalded the young child for sleeping on her couch at her home in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. The very sad incident happened on the 3rd of July, 2018. Trouble started when Beauty, who normally sleeps on the floor,  slept on the couch that fateful day due to the cold weather. This angered Eze, who dealt with the girl by scalding her with hot water. Not remorseful, she still sent the girl go to school in that condition and her teacher noticed and filed a report against the suspect. Beauty, who hails from Edo State, accused Christiana of pouring hot water on her and using belt to flog her on the same spot she poured the hot water on, till her skin pilled peeled off.Neighbours also testified that the two years beauty stayed with Eze was pure torture for the child.  The securityman also attested to the fact that he gives the child food sometimes. Further investigation also showed that the girl has no room in the house and keeps her luggage under the staircase, from where she dresses up.  Photo Credit: Getty
