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.

    I am not sure what point you are trying to make, or how it relates to my comment/the article?

    Even if we’re talking about someone who simply lacks basic or any morals, that would make them even more susceptible to Greed.

    Especially when using a system specifically designed to provide them with vulnerable people who are mostly hidden from public and given less wages and rights, don’t know local laws, and are incredibly desperate.

    What a convenient coincidence, heartless Greed finds itself flush with unlimited desperate workers. Again.
