A MAN who was caught in a master bedroom after a tryst with an Indonesian maid fell three storeys while escaping from the flat in Jurong West. He sustained head injuries and was hospitalised.
The man's escape and fall at Block 857, Jurong West Street 81 last Saturday was caught on video by a reader of The Straits Times citizen journalism website STOMP.
The video by STOMPer Nurul shows the man sitting on a window ledge of the third floor unit at around 2pm. He then fell to ground and was rescued by officers from the Singapore Civil Defence Force.
The New Paper reported on Monday that he had earlier gone to the maid's flat while her employers were out shopping.
The employers returned unexpectedly and one of them spotted the man hiding behind the curtains in the bedroom and chased him, blocking his way to the door.
The man returned to the bedroom, while the flat owner rang the police, only to find the man had jumped from the window.
The Indonesian maid later told police she was in love with the man, despite only knowing him for six days. She has been married for four years and has a three-year-old son, but said she would divorce her husband for the new man.
Police told STOMP that they were alerted to the incident on Saturday afternoon. When they arrived at the scene they found a '21-year-old male Indian lying on the ground floor with injuries'.
