Police officer jailed for sex with maid he arrested

A maid under arrest for stealing from her employer was offered help by a cop to return to her native Indonesia - as long as she gave him sexual favours.

Staff sergeant Parthivan Ramaya, 34, told 25-year-old Dwi Sulistiani: "You girl. I boy. You understand, right?"

He was jailed for 14 months yesterday after admitting three out of four charges of corruptly obtaining bribes in the form of physical intimacy and sex.

Parthivan arrested Dwi in January last year and took her to Ang Mo Kio Police Division headquarters, where he warned her of the consequences of her alleged offence. He asked if she wanted his help, to which she replied in the affirmative. But he said she must help him first.

After her statement had been recorded, Parthivan again asked her whether she wanted his help to return to Indonesia. He then told her to touch him and groped her buttocks.

Parthivan then took her to a different interview room where he hugged and kissed her.

The next day, after administering a warning, he took her to his flat in Yishun and had sex with her in the living room and shower.
