Mr Singh was killed instantly when he was sucked into a fast-moving machine while re-cleaning a packing area. A man has been decapitated in a horrific accident at a chicken processing factory in Melbourne, Australia. Mr Sarel Singh, 34, was killed instantly when he was sucked into a machine and decapitated in an incident that has now placed the entire poultry processing industry under review. The factory was already under investigation over claims of unlawful and unethical treatment of its majority migrant workforce, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Lateline programme reported. Mr Singh's brother, Harry, said that Sarel had migrated from India four years ago 'in the hope of finding a better life in Australia'. But Sarel had told his brother, who lives in India, that his job at the Melbourne factory was 'hell' and he was planning to return home. 'He used to say that life working at that place was like hell. 'He said it's a very hard job and he was tired of it. 'But due to the burden of the loans and debts over here and in Australia too, he had to work over there and he was struggling hard.' The National Union of Workers (NUW) said Sarel had just finished a four-hour shift when he was asked to go back and re-clean a packing area. He was standing on a ladder hosing down a machine when he was swept into it and instantly decapitated.

This is a non-story here in Australia. I can't find any reference to it in local news. The media here are afraid of inflaming the Indian migrant population because they are quick to rally together and demonstrate.

I wonder why, it seems like they should be grateful that multinational conglomerates tag, bag, and snag them into foreign lands filled with people whose jobs were just robbed under the globalist Ponzi scheme known as "free trade".
