She also found pictures of the maid wearing her clothes and jewellery. Additionally, the woman also noticed that the maid took a picture of her husband's bank card.
The maid was shocked that the sponsor had checked her mobile when confronted, and responded violently.
The maid demanded her phone back adding that the sponsor did not have the right to go through her personal stuff without permission.
The sponsor told her that she was going to report her to the police. The maid reacted by assaulting the woman, according to the report, and hit her in the face and on her body. The maid took her phone back and ran out of the house after the woman fell on the ground.
After her arrest, the maid denied all accusations, saying that the woman forced her to do more work, including cleaning the family cars and other things, which compelled her to leave the house.
