A long list of allegedly stolen items has prompted a magistrate at Eastern Court to elevate a theft case against a Filipina domestic helper to the District Court.
Principal Magistrate Don So, in a hearing last Wednesday (April
16), also ordered that Sherelle Lyn Dajay, 40 years old, be detained in jail as
he scheduled her next hearing for May 21 at the District Court.

No estimate was revealed in court of the total value of the
jewelry, allegedly stolen between March 17 and Oct. 11 last year at the employer’s
flat at Black’s Link in Happy Valley.
The list includes 15 necklaces, 10 pendants, 26 rings, three bracelets, 29 pairs of earrings, six watches and one ornament, most of them made of gold and some encrusted with jewels such as diamond and sapphire.
Dajay was originally accused of stealing 17 jewelry items -- two watches, eight rings, two pairs of earrings, three necklaces and two pendants -- when she first appeared at Eastern Court last April 12.
