Maid falls to her death from Jurong East condo

An Indonesian maid fell to her death from a Jurong East condominium last Thursday. Police received a call at about noon that a woman had fallen from the eighth floor of Block 122, Jurong East Street 13.

The 26-year-old was believed to be cleaning the windows of her employer's Ivory Heights unit when she fell.

A witness said she looked out when she heard screams and saw two people trying to pull her in, but despite their efforts, the woman still fell to the ground.

While her employers have declined to comment, residents said the maid was new to the family, and could have been hired as recently as a week ago.

Some residents also surmised that the people who tried to rescue the maid may have been an elderly couple who were at home at the time. The family comprises four young children, their parents and grandparents.
