Group upset that employer who allegedly forced the Indonesian maid to live in a kennel was acquitted in court today.
Adelina Lisao died due to multiple organ failure following alleged abuse by her employer at a house in Bukit Mertajam.
Adelina’s employer, Ambika MA Shan, 61, escaped the gallows after the High Court was reported to have granted her a full acquittal on a murder charge today after the deputy public prosecutor requested for a discharge not amounting to an acquittal. “Why have our courts failed her? Why has the Malaysian government failed her? Where is justice for Adelina?” she asked in a statement today.
