Police officer’s wife in Singapore admits to killing Myanmar maid.

The wife of a Singaporean police officer has admitted to starving, torturing and ultimately killing her domestic worker from Myanmar.

The worker reportedly weighed only 24kg when she died from her injuries in the 2016 incident.

Prosecutors have called Gaiyathiri Murugayan’s actions “evil and utterly inhumane.

Yesterday, Ms Murugayan, 40, pleaded guilty in a Singapore court to 28 charges including culpable homicide against Piang Ngaih Don. If she is convicted, she could be jailed for life.
