A Filipino domestic helper was found hanging by her 90-year-old employer in Kimberley Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, yesterday morning.
The Sky Post, as translated by EJI, reports that the maid, only referred to as Brenda, hanged herself with a scarf, possibly because she had been suffering from financial distress.
Her elderly employer, who Brenda had looked after for the past 10 years, stumbled upon the scene at 7:46am.
Police say there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding the maid’s death.
