Wow, that might be the worst lede I've ever seen in an article:

>Workers at the Regency Ceramics factory in the India raided the home of their boss, and beat him senseless with led pipes after a wage dispute turned ugly.

Led pipes and "The India", seriously Forbes?

Not to nitpick, but the article has several other grammar mistakes:

> Curfew and other civil orders were imposed in Yanam because of the uprising led to the murder of the Regency president.

> Eight Regency Ceramics workers were injured in police firing that followed [...]

And so on. I think that they might have forgotten to send this to the editor (not being sarcastic).

Or maybe they used some automatic translation tool and it was posted automatically when the foreign language version was posted?

Seems too complicated. Personally, my bet is on an editor who is pulling in some weekend hours and has had a few drinks. Gotta have a few rubber-stamped articles to justify the double-pay for the last few hours of "work" ;)
