I guess he should have stayed in India where life is easier.

[driftdiver]

well obviously the chicken industry should be shut down and everyone can eat little green crackers.

??

Wow.

[freedumb2003]

That really sucks but you gotta admit, it is up there with the untimely passing of “Chuckles the Clown” on MTM...

[SJSAMPLE]

That’s no way to get ahead in business.

Mr Singh was killed instantly when he was sucked into a fast-moving machine while re-cleaning a packing area

There’s an Indian head penny joke here someplace.

What a lot of immigrants don’t count on is the increased cost of living in industrialized nations. What sounds like a lot of money when you are desperately poor ($8/hour in the US and Australia vs $2/day in many countries) is barely enough to get by. And jobs like the ones in chicken processing factories are hell. If you are poor, uneducated, and without some sort of skill, then you are often better off in your home country.

Ain’t nothing in our chicken but chicken... and soilent green.

'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.'

First he got sucked into the "Boys, you, too, can make B-I-G money plucking chickens in Australia--let US show you how: just send...," scam.

Sounds like his entire life sucked.

I've worked dozens of red meat and poultry plants, but I can't figure out what sort of device could have sucked someone into it head first, especially packaging equipment.

And everything under maintenance or being sanitized should have been "locked out/tagged out" before he got close to it.

[DemforBush]

Man, what a way to go. o_O

RIP, Mr. Singh...

[LeonardFMason]

Plant owner Monty Burns said Supervisor Homer Simpson was responsible.

[Caipirabob]

Tragic. What a terrible way to go for him and his family.

[ozzymandus]

Yup, that’ll do ‘er.

[BigCinBigD]

It's Shake-N-Bake...And I helped!

[editor-surveyor]

What would your comment have been had it been Brittany Spears that was sucked into the machine?
.

[Celtic Cross]

Some pretty tasteless comments on this thread...Imagine if it were one of your loved ones.

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.

Why review the entire industry? Why not just go after the owner/managers of this one factory that obviously was not adhering to the labor/safety regulations already in place?

May God comfort his family, in any case.
