Two parents have said they watched in horror as a secret
camera they installed in their severely disabled son’s bedroom caught a care
worker physically assaulting him.
Paul and Julie Rowlands became suspicious their son was been
maltreated whenever they visit him at the care home 19-year-old Zak lives, as
he usually feels bad whenever they set to leave.
So the couple placed a hidden
in his room, and alas
they discovered Zak was been abused by a care worker.

Footage from the hidden camera exposed Stanley Nkenka, a care
worker hitting Zak about the head, calling him a stupid boy and leaving him
alone in the dark in tears. He was also seen flicking the teenager in the face
with a dressing gown and later warning as he stood over him: “Right, don’t come
out. If you come, I hit your head.”
Nkenka then hits Zak’s head again before ending with a
veiled threat, pointing at him: “Cross the mark...” At the end of the
heartbreaking clip, autistic Zak is heard crying into his pillow in the dark
bedroom.
His parents reported to the right authorities and Nkenka who
is from Cameroon was charged and now jailed for 6 months.
Zak parents are now launching a campaign for cameras to be
installed in all care home bedrooms to stop further abuse.
