"Dozens of Indian farm labourers have been freed from slave-like working conditions in northern Italy, police have said.
The 33 workers were lured to Italy on the promise of jobs and a better future by two fellow Indian nationals, police say.
But instead, they were allegedly forced to work more than 10 hours a day, seven days a week for a tiny wage which was used to pay off debts to the alleged gangmasters."
Wild stuff. Hoping those gang-masters get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and do some serious jail time.
When people talk about slave-labor, they typically point the finger at African nations or parts of South-East Asia, but it's still happening in plain sight in the West.
