By Ben Nadarajan
NON-CONSTITUENCY Member of Parliament Steve Chia is being investigated by the police following a report made by his wife who found photographs at home of him and their maid, both naked.
In the police report, Mrs Doreen Chia, 31, alleged that her husband had outraged the maid's modesty.

Mrs Chia reported the matter to the Ang Mo Kio Police Division at the end of last month, just weeks after the couple's seventh wedding anniversary.
She is also pregnant with their first child.
When contacted yesterday, police spokesman Phillip Mah said that it was 'inappropriate for police to comment on investigations'.
However, The Straits Times understands that the maid, an Indonesian woman in her early 20s, has told police officers that she had not been forced into posing for the pictures.
'There is nothing for you to write about as it is a problem between husband and wife to be sorted out.'
- Mr Chia, who is also secretary-general of the National Solidarity Party in an SMS reply to The Straits Times
Both Mr Chia and the maid were said to be smiling in the photographs, sources added.
The maid, who had been working for the Chias in their five-room Housing Board flat in Ang Mo Kio for about a year, is no longer employed by the couple.
She is believed to be staying at a haven for maids who run into problems with their employers.
When The Straits Times visited the couple's bridal salon in Tanjong Pagar yesterday, Mrs Chia, her eyes welling up with tears, confirmed she had made the police report against her husband.
When asked why she made the report, the long-haired petite woman, who wore a black loose-fitting dress because of her pregnancy, would only say: 'I prefer to reserve my comments.'
The couple met on a trip to climb Mount Ophir while they were both studying in the National University of Singapore in the early 1990s.
Mr Chia, 34, the secretary-general of opposition political party, the National Solidarity Party, did not answer calls to his mobile phone yesterday, but replied to an SMS from The Straits Times, saying: 'There is nothing for you to write about as it is a problem between husband and wife to be sorted out.'
Mr Chia was given a seat in Parliament as a Non-Constituency MP after the 2001 General Election for garnering the most votes among the opposition members who lost.
His party members declined to comment when asked how the matter would affect his position in the party or in Parliament.

toopid wife. wat does she gain by publicising the affair. she not only shames her husband but also herself n her unborn child. i can imagine the teasing the child will receive wen he/she grows up....

yes.. domestic problems should be kept at home as far as possible.. never wash dirty linen at home..Originally posted by skeujin:yah but consider this... if they settle things n patch back. his career is ruined. his child will forever b ridiculed. n the wife will not be spared gossip as well... i stil belive domestice problems shd be kept at home behind closed doors...
being a political figure, he should have thought of the consequence of his actions.. the impact on his career.. then again, political figure or not.. one should never betray someone's trust (in this case, the sanctity of marriage)... -
