An 82-year-old Italian farmer and a
42-year-old Sudanese migrant seasonal worker 'broker' got 14 and
a half years in jail each Thursday over the death from a heart
attack brought on by heat exhaustion of a 47-year-old Sudanese
day labourer who died while picking tomatoes in 40-degree
temperatures in Puglia in July 2015.
The farmer, Giuseppe Mariano, and the migrant transfer brotker,
Mohamed Elsalih, were found guilty of culpable negligent
homicide and reducing people into a state of slavery in the
death of Mohammed Abdullah on July 20 that year.
Both defendants were also barred from public office.
