The statement comes amid shock over the case of a Bolivian worker whose arm was cut off in an accident at work. Bosses at the bakery in Valencia are accused of dumping him 100m (330 feet) from a hospital entrance and throwing him severed limb in a rubbish bin.

Mr Rilles was allegedly warned by the son of the bakery owner not to tell doctors where his accident had taken place, and was left a distance of some 100m from the hospital entrance, while bleeding heavily. Mr Rilles, 33, worked had 12-hour days at the bakery, earning 23 euros a day (£20; $32) under no contract. read full story / add a comment
