Netizens have been up in arms against Changi Airport Group (CAG) chairman Liew Mun Leong and his family since their former domestic helper was acquitted of stealing over $34,000 worth of items from their household after a four-year legal battle.
The backlash has since found its way onto the Facebook page of Changi Airport itself, even on innocuous posts that are trying to promote shopping deals.
Parti Liyani, 46, was accused by her former employers of theft and was found guilty in March 2019, leaving her with a jail sentence of two years and two months.
She appealed the judgement and was eventually acquitted by High Court judge Chan Seng Onn, who noted that the Liew family had “improper motives” and found the testimony of Karl Liew, Liew Mun Leong’s son, “highly suspect”. The judge noted that there is reason to believe that the affluent family took steps to prevent her from lodging a complaint to the Ministry of Manpower for illegal deployment.
