A YOUNG Indonesian maid was charged in court on Friday with the murder of a 12-year-old girl with special needs.
Nurhayati, 24, looked calm when the charge was read to her in Malay.
She is accused of causing the death of Linda Lee Yee Lin at Block 573 Hougang Street 51 between 5.30am and 6.07am on Wednesday.
Her lawyer, Mr Mohamed Muzammil, has been instructed by the Indonesian Embassy to act for her.
The prosecution successfully applied for Nurhayati to be remanded at Central police lock-up with permission to take her out for investigation.
She will be back in court next Friday.
If convicted, she faces the mandatory death penalty.
