Italy’s main trade union confederation on Tuesday said it was joining the prosecution of a farm owner charged with the murder of an undocumented Indian worker who bled to death after his arm was cut off by a piece of equipment.
Antonello Lovato, 39, has been accused of abandoning the injured and bleeding Satnam Singh, 31, and failing to call an ambulance following the incident in Latina, a largely agricultural province south of Rome, on June 17, 2024. Prosecutors originally considered charging Lovato with manslaughter, but raised it to murder with malice after the fact since he was aware the actions could cause death.
