Stavros Papantoniadis, owner of Boston pizza parlor Stash's Pizza, is charged with physically and verbally abusing a longtime immigrant employee who could not legally work in the U.S., say officials:
The owner of a Boston pizza parlor is accused of physically and verbally abusing a longtime immigrant employee who could not legally work in the U.S., forcing the employee to work long hours, and threatening to turn him over to immigration authorities if he protested, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
Although he only faces one charge, he victimized at least seven employees, according to court documents. One employee, a native of a North African country, allegedly worked as much as 119 hours a week at Stash’s Pizza from 2001 to 2015, endured derogatory comments about his religion, and was violently attacked by his employer. The worker was once kicked so hard in the genitals by Papantoniadis that he required surgery, prosecutors said. On another occasion, Papantoniadis hit the worker in the mouth and broke some teeth, prosecutors said.
