A housemaid is trending on social media after her madam hid a camera in her room.

The house help was caught dancing joyfully on camera apparently unaware that a camera was capturing her every move.

The video has now caused a debate about privacy.

The madam who shared the video, captioned it: “My house maid in her room dancing like she’s on gun point.”

While many found the video amusing, others frowned on it and asked why a camera should be placed in a domestic staff’s room, thereby denying her her privacy.

However, others have defended the madam, and said only those with kids would understand the value of having a camera in every part of the house, even in the domestic staff’s room, as kids sometimes stray in there.
