Two Indian nationals have been arrested for allegedly enslaving 33 farm labourers, all from India, in Italy’s Verona province, according to a media report, weeks after the country was shocked by the tragic death of a Sikh farm worker who bled to death.
Finance police also seized assets worth 475,000 euros from the suspects, who own two agricultural sector companies with no employees on the books and are allegedly total tax evaders, ANSA news agency reported on Saturday.
The two alleged gangmasters were arrested on Saturday and are under investigation for crimes, including enslavement and labour exploitation, the Italian news agency said.
