Rome, 8 July (LaPresse) – The trial concerning the death of Satnam Singh, the Indian farm labourer who died in June 2024, began a short while ago at the Court of Assizes in Latina. Singh died after a homemade plastic-wrapping machine for melons at Antonello Lovato’s sole trader business in Borgo Santa Maria, in the province of Latina, severed his arm; Instead of calling for help, Lovato dumped him outside his home. At the previous hearing, the deputy public prosecutor for the Public Prosecutor’s Office in Latina, Luigia Spinelli, had called for a 22-year sentence for Antonello Lovato, arguing that the farm labourer could have been saved had emergency services been called. The verdict is expected, barring any adjournments, in the late afternoon.
