Hired cleaning maid accused of poisoning baby’s milkListen to this articleThe cleaner working in the house (screenshot from FB: Yokey R.)A Thai family has reported a daily-hire cleaner to the police after discovering disinfectant had been deliberately poured into their baby’s milk bottle, an incident that shocked social media users and prompted a warning to other parents. Everything appeared normal until around midday, when the baby’s grandmother prepared a baby's milk bottle that had been left out earlier that morning. The mother examined the baby’s bottle, and confirmed it contained disinfectant, describing a bitter, cooling taste. A subsequent review of the family's security camera footage showed the cleaner taking a half-full baby's bottle from an upper floor, adding disinfectant on another floor and then returning the bottle to the baby’s bedside. The footage also revealed other disturbing behaviour, including taking photographs around the house when she should have been cleaning.
