Maid who hid baby in suitcase convicted of causing death
A 29-year-old maid, who suffocated her newborn daughter after she put her in a suitcase to hide her from her Emirati sponsor family, has been sentenced to a suspended one-year prison sentence.
The Ethiopian housemaid, who will be deported, has been on trial for murder in the Court of First Instance.
According to court records, she had an illicit sexual relationship with a Pakistani man and she killed the baby by hiding her for several hours inside a suitcase, one day after her birth.
She and the Pakistani have also been charged with illicit consensual sex in the Court of Misdemeanours.
The maid admitted in the investigation that she got pregnant from an illicit relationship and admitted she gave birth on April 26. But she said the baby had been stillborn. She said she cut her umbilical cord with a kitchen knife the following morning, before wrapping her in clothes and a towel and placing her in a suitcase for several hours.
The body was found by the sponsor’s 17-year-old son who said the family entered her room, outside the house, on April 27 and searched her bags against her will, after she skipped work the previous day.
The forensic doctor said the baby was about one-day old and normal and that she died due to asphyxiation.
