Ugandan maid sentenced to four years in prison

The Ugandan maid who was caught on video beating a toddler last month, has been sentenced to four years in jail by a Chief Magistrate court judge in Kampala.

Jolly Tumuhiirwe, 22year-old, pleaded guilty to the crime during her appearance before the Chief Magistrate Lillian Bucyana.

The maid was captured on CCTV as she tortured the little Arnella 1/12 old in her their home in Naalya suburb on Kampala last month. The video uploaded by the baby’s father was everywhere on the internet and that attracted global outrage against the wicked act of the maid.

Some people are however not satisfied by the number of years given to the wicked maid over her action.

May be by the time she finishes her jail term, raising a hand even against her own child, would not come close to her mind if she eventually gets married.
