In Namibia, a nanny is facing charges of attempted
murder, after she was allegedly caught on camera violently throwing a
baby into a cot.
.
The child’s mother,
Annemarie Theron, had set up a hidden camera in her home after she
noticed bruises on her nine-month-old daughter, Laila’s neck, shoulders
and under her feet. .
.
Laila had been
in the care of her nanny since May this year. Footage captured by the
camera appears to show the family’s nanny manhandling the tot, tossing
her into her cot like a rag doll. .
.
Devastated
mum Annemarie told news websites Netwerk24 & Rekord: “It was very
emotional watching it. I refused to sleep, eat or drink for a couple of
days afterward. It’s difficult to imagine how long this has been going
on for. .
.
I can see Laila is so, so
broken after everything. In July, I had noticed some marks under Laila’s
feet but never suspected our nanny. In August, I noticed my baby had
marks on her arms and neck.
.
.
This
was when I started to monitor the situation closely. In the beginning
of September, my husband, Johan was home for two days. He told me that
Laila feared our nanny.” .
.
Hence, the
Theron family decided to install cameras. A friend assisted Annemarie in
downloading an application that allowed her to see the footage from her
phone. Annemarie and her husband Johan informed police and the nanny
was arrested on Friday. .
.
She appeared
in court on Monday to face charges of child abuse, assault and
attempted murder. She was denied bail and remanded in custody until
October.
