New Delhi, Nov 15 (IANS) A US-based NRI woman, who was arrested Thursday for torturing her maid, has been booked also for torturing a juvenile servant who had been employed to attend to the accused woman’s mother in hospital, police said Friday.

The victim, aged 16, was recovered Friday from a hospital where the accused woman’s mother was under treatment.
