Apparently blinded by rage, the madam was said to have dragged Deborah from inside the
apartment to the balcony and then flung her over the railings.
Deborah, who sustained serious injury on her forehead, was rescued by some residents who saw her writhing in pain and rushed her to LASUTH.
According to police sources, Deborah was accused by her madam of stealing her jewelries worth N1 million.
The source said some angry residents almost lynched the woman.
She was, however, rescued by policemen who got to the scene at the nick of time.
