In a devastating turn of events, a 26-year-old Indian-origin truck driver lost his life in an accident in Battipalia, a city located in southern Italy. The young man, identified as Parampreet Singh Tattala, hailing from the village of Tattala in Gurdaspur district, met with an untimely demise due to an electric shock.

Parampreet’s father, Deva Singh, shared the heart-wrenching details surrounding his son’s tragic passing. According to Deva Singh, Parampreet was operating a Celerano trolley in the Cancello district of Italy when the fatal incident occurred. As he began unloading the trolley, it came into contact with overhead wires, resulting in an electric shock that claimed his life.

Parampreet, who had been residing in Italy for the past two decades, had pursued his education there and was employed on a dairy farm. His ties to Italy ran deep, as evidenced by his marriage in the country two years ago and the presence of his brother there.

The news of Parampreet’s demise has sent shockwaves through his hometown and beyond. Scheduled to visit their son in Italy on March 13, Parampreet’s parents now find themselves grappling with the devastating reality of his sudden passing. The community has rallied around the grieving family, with both local residents and prominent figures joining in calls for government assistance to repatriate Parampreet’s remains.

Parampreet’s untimely death has left a profound void in the lives of his loved ones. As they mourn his loss, they are also faced with the challenging task of navigating the process of bringing his body back home. The tragedy serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of life and the profound impact of accidents that can occur even in the course of daily routines.

As the family and community come to terms with this heartbreaking loss, they find solace in the cherished memories of Parampreet and the enduring legacy he leaves behind.
