Man gets five-week jail for masturbating behind maid

A 43-year-old man who masturbated behind his former domestic helper has been sentenced to five weeks in jail.

Shek Kwok-ngai was convicted of one charge of attempted indecent assault but was cleared of four other charges, Sing Tao Daily reports.

Shek was caught on a video camera taking out his penis and fondling it behind the woman's back in the kitchen of his Mong Kok home on March 3, 2014.

The camera was secretly set up by the Filipino woman who claimed similar incidents happened on Feb. 26 and Feb. 28 that year.

She reported the case to the police after quitting her job.

A Kwun Tong magistrate's court convicted the defendant after citing the woman as an honest witness.

The judge said she never wavered during cross-examination.

Shek is free on HK$5,000 (US$645) bail while he appeals his conviction.
