According to Khaleej Times, the 22-year-old maid fell to her death from the 19th floor of a residential building in the southern city of Sharjah.
The maid was found in a pool of blood by construction workers who reported the matter to the police on patrol.
She was, however, pronounced dead due to the serious injuries she had sustained by paramedics who were called to the scene.
The son of her 60 year-old-employer was taken in by police for questioning over the death.
