SINGAPORE — A woman who was found guilty of mistreating two of her domestic helpers at her Sentosa Cove residence was on Friday (Jan 27) sentenced to 10 months’ jail and ordered to pay compensation to each of the victims.
Tan Lee Hoon, 58, had denied hurting the two domestic helpers during a trial that began in December 2020.of voluntarily causing hurt by the district courts last December and was granted a discharge amounting to an acquittal for the remaining charge.
The offences took place at Tan's residence on Paradise Island, which is one of the five man-made islands at Sentosa Cove. Sim was sentenced to five weeks' jail and an S$8,000 fine in May 2021 for illegally employing Ms Lozares. Tan’s team of defence lawyers, comprising Mr Derek Kang, Mr Ammar Lulla and Ms Ng Sock Cheng from Cairnhill Law, had argued that the threshold for a custodial sentence had not been crossed and instead sought a fine of between S$2,000 to S$7,500 for each charge.
This was due to their vulnerable status and the prevalence of employer and domestic helper relationships in Singapore. The judge cited how although Ms Vegafria had worked for Tan for about three months, she was physically abused on at least five occasions.
