Indian farm worker in Italy ‘left to die on road’ with severed arm
Trade unionist calls for crackdown on ‘barbaric exploitation’ after death of Satnam Singh, 31, in Latina
A trade unionist has called for a crackdown against “barbaric exploitation” after an Indian farm worker died when he was allegedly being left on a road by his employer following an accident that severed his arm.
Satnam Singh, 31, was injured on Monday while working on machinery on a farm in Latina, a rural area close to Rome with a large community of Indian immigrant labourers.
Singh, who came to Italy with his wife three years ago, was allegedly left with his arm severed on the road outside his home in Borgo Santa Maria.
Police said they were called by his wife and an air ambulance was sent to transport him to San Camillo Forlalini hospital in Rome, where he died of his injuries on Wednesday.
His Italian employer is under investigation for manslaughter, violation of workplace safety regulations and failure to provide aid.
Holy fuciking shit what's wrong with people
Indifference
Indifference is just a tool they use - the root cause is Greed.
They hate immigrants, but love slave labour. Then use immigrants "taking jobs" (what the farm owners actually want, because slaves are very profitable and locals would never do that work at that wage) to rile up the population to vote for Conservative governments, who often don't change the influx of immigrants but who does love to lower taxes and turn a blind eye to labour abuses.
Profits over people every time.
This is Italy: racial discrimination, labor exploitation, inexistent law enforcement.
They're merely retvrning to tradition, although the ancient Romans weren't nearly as racist.
My parents tell stories like these about the Pennsylvania coal mines from last century. They would just drop the person alive or dead on thier front porch with thier last paycheck pinned to them.
I feel like Italy is known for brutality
Well thats why you allow immigration, for an abusable cheap workforce
Did you learn this today? Congratulations 🎉
It sounds like you just did, but you're playing it off.
They made a statement. There was nothing implying it was learned today.
