I wonder if the donors landlords are suggesting to them to donate their kidney to get money to pay their debts? I can imagine the constant pressuring by the landlords and the donors giving in just to get their landlord off their backs.It's odd that they would go ahead with this after hearing all the stories of others in their village who had been shafted by their landlord even after donating.Did the pressure applied by their landlords cloud their otherwise clear judgement?

[holistic1951]

this asshole doctor is simply a kidney merchant.

[dharmaatdawn]

This guy has to come up w more reasonable excuse then " they DONATE kidneys b/c of religion"... they say theres hell after death.. if theres a hell its here on this earth. it becomes rather easy to justify the most revolting acts. Easy to look away, easy to put the responsibility on the very ppl who suffer day in and day out.

[janjua1122]

its PAKISTAN 400 RUPEES A DAY NOT A MONTH DO THAT CORRECTION

[swatikhan8]

i am astonished, a country where the people are reluctant to give blood. how they are ready to give kidneys as a donor. these all doctors are lieing. in pakistan the politicians are the boses, and there exist three big mafias. Army, Police and the Doctors.

this country need strict law to control everything, becasue every business or anything else operating are all base on illegal ways.

[ACTORoWRITER]

These people can barely feed themselves yet they have 4-7 kids? The peoples from this part of the globe have a large surplus of people, because it was once beneficial to have a large family who'd tend to your farming/labor, but not anymore... Yet they still have large families?...

[taz4786]

heartbreaking video

[wranglermariner]

both of these so called doctors motherfuckers are bastards and one son of a bitch giving her an explanation of religious grounds and also telling her that she got to be a muslim to understand this when our religion forbids body parts donation at all. they should be queued and shot in the head all of these mofos

[smasroorhasan]

so sad!

[MrDesiPak]

OMG!!!..That doctor at 21:00 a complete Liar.A devil in Disguise...There are many Religious Devils in Pakistan who use religion and exploit it for their own benfits and that doctor is neverthelsess the same..In Pakistan religion is used for killing People and even exploiting it for personal gains and the Irony is so called Religious Parties come on Street for So called Protests against West but nobody talks on real issues as where religion card gives u benefits u must have to keep silent ..

[sissisaona]

they should stop fucking like rabbits and making those babys so they can live better. always the same excuse i need to take care of my 4 children . STOP FUCKING ! PUT THE DICK DOWN.....

[swwt22]

what is the end and where is the end?

[trebhz2k1]

How can anyone just donate a kidney on "humanitarian grounds"? BIG LIE Dr.!

[porkythepig16]

wow the doctor pulled the religion card out of the bag

[786xxx8]

we all gonna die one day..what will these people answer to allah??

[DKBN]

If the goddamn federal reserve wanted, they could abolish poverty in every way... But that is not their intent.

Poor people in debt have no other way out, just as dying people have to take extreme measure!

[Mastershag1984]

@ iqbal brother look doctors are not doing business how can u say its a business ,can u imagine how much a highly qualified doctor is paid much less than a 3rd grade nikama business student!

[Thepiratejoe]

Disgusting fucks. People who profit off of taking the organs out of the poor should be hung. It's clear this is becoming rampant in the world.

[silverhazeindeeair]

if Dr.Shah is so seriously worried about the people who need kidneys,( which he buys for next to nothing of poor people and sells for way more) maybe next time he should donate one of his own

[sabirdave]

these lying bastards theses bastard doctors take the piss out of poor. the people who want kidneys in the western world pay good money but pakis doctors and middle men take the poor mans money. its always been like dat

[Joanna6355]

They are killing children in the poor countries in the world for organs. In Columbia they have killed 10 children in one week and they are going to kill 66 together, just for the body parts. Tiis is insane!!!!!

[tashi30671]

[samankurdy]

excellent documentary.....very professiona. 

[avramstefan]

Wow this is like the 15th century... and people sad u cannot go back in time, i see here that u can, lol

[theanswerone]

Almighty Allah, I wish your hand, destroy all infidels demons who only want to destroy your people, killed the angels of death that are just mercenaries motivated by their greed, allah, the great, the magnificent, our only God, free the world of mercenaries of death......

[dafkrew323]

@theanswerone no allah no non of that

[scottisdarealest]

@theanswerone this nigga thinks allah is god allah mean satan ha

[meerkatcandy]

These doctors are killing poor people.

[selberine]

(Screw) the doctor, he and his wife and kids and grandkids and relatives should "donate" their kidneys for the same cause if he's so "mr goody 2 shoes" and having such a mindset. Its obvious he is twisted and being dodgy about the villagers. Just cause they are poor doesn't mean their lives are worth just what you can sell. Father of transplant my ass ! what a crook.

[reshami11]

it's really sad people are literally forced to put their life at risk to get a living. whatever the forces are its really inhuman to take advantage of the poor to this extent. Their should be a limit, what's our limit, who would determine this? I dont think any person happily gives up a kidney unless the problem of impovershment. oh dear, isn;t there enough food for all the living in the earth now? humanity is suffering.....

[NKHAN78600]

this surgeon is an ass hole,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

why u go there ? y u talk to people??

because they were gonna ubcover your greedy ass

[producernickrosen]

The biggest hypocrits here are the filmmakers who profit from this without really helping the poor or sharing profit. the "rich" western recepeint in it to save his fucken life. they did not create this feudal system. outlawing this will keep the poor exploited and send needy recipient o even poorer and more fucke up places like China, getting organs from political prisoners.

Continued...

[producernickrosen]

The only solution is legalizing compensated organ donation in every country and having everything government controlled. regardless of how much these people got or didnt get, the mian paoint ignored here is that they saved someones lives and should pride themselves, rather than be further humilated by sensation seeking media.

nick rosen, the guy who gave his organ, got compensated and made a film / kidney beans / about it/

[NKHAN78600]

@producernickrosen

well no matter what we do poor are gonna be the neglected

[producernickrosen]

A legalized centralized kidney market exists in Iran. The government pays the donors like 2000$ and the patient also pays 2 or 3 k. the donor gets medical care for life.

You are all forgetiing one thing - you shout exploitation but if your mother/sister/girlfriend was gonna die otherwise you might see this differently. so the poor got exploited but a person{s life was saved and this is more important. I sawy legalize is the only way to end this.

[producernickrosen]

The poor are ALWAYS used and abused whather its the nike or shirt you wear that was made in a sweatshop or whatever. Here we are talking about their rights over their own body and also, very important exploited or not, whether they get 1000$ or 10,000$ is les important han the fact that the needy people are DYING - to them it is life and death matter and this is more important in my opinion.

[producernickrosen]

The poor are ALWAYS used and abused whather its the nike or shirt you wear that was made in a sweatshop or whatever.The important thing here is Were talking about a life or death matter. whether they get 1000$ or 10,000$ is less important han the fact that the recepient people are DYING !

[NKHAN78600]

@producernickrosen

I agree with U to a certain extent,,, but we are talking about 3 rd world countries,,, again poor are gonna be exploited,,,,AGAIN...

[TheFutureLooksGrimm]

What I don't understand is why all these poor people in 3rd world-like areas, keep having all these kids! Why? If you can't feed them why have them and subject them to such awful poverty?

[NKHAN78600]

@TheFutureLooksGrimm

its same as people are here in USA

MEDICAID !!!!! they breed like rabbits too,,,,,,

[biblefarce]

@TheFutureLooksGrimm I hope you got your answer. The issue is men dont use protection and women dare not say no. And yes abortions do go on.

[TheFutureLooksGrimm]

@biblefarce yeah & I think it's also a problem similar to how the US has people who have kids just to have someone to love them, or to keep a person in a relationship

[TheMuziekmann]

@TheFutureLooksGrimm they see children as financial investments, so that when they are old, the children will look after them and not live the last days on the street.

[SonnyA89]

@TheFutureLooksGrimm More kids = more workers = more money. You honestly didn't think of this? -_-

[c47v3770]

pretty depressing..

[MrDesiPak]

The doctor in this clip is a total liar..I know this business .Poor people are given given 60-120,000 Rs== (1000-2000) US dollars and then these people are told that they will be punished if they tell the truth to the media so these people say in front of foreigners that they are doing it on humanitarian ground. This is what I call the mass exploitation of poverty at the hands of money mongerer bastards.

[nuggert]

STFU, you do the same.

Every single piece of clothing you wear. every piece of hardware you use is made by the poverty

[MrDesiPak]

@nuggert....and you assholes and the westernes exploit that poverty ...so just shut up....every kidney bought in Pakistan, India and srilnaka and bangladesh 90 percent lands in the developed countries and Arab countries...just ask you own mother fuckers to stop buying these kidneys to end the illicit trade.

[NKHAN78600]

@MrDesiPak

i agree with u

its soooo depressing ,,, i wish i can help my people,,, our F ing leaders ,, hope they die in hell,,,,,,

where is islam when u need it ???

[MrDesiPak]

Inshallah all wadairas and chudries will be fucked by the kamis and ordinary class Pakistanis and then our country  will be a progressive nation then. I have heard many stories especially at bhattas you will see the slavery even in this age. We should work hard to end this menace to these people.

[530joseph]

hey CIA!!! want something good to do? Fix this shit! God bless all those poor people who were swindled out of a kidney. I lost both of my kidneys to cancer and I would never accept a kidney in such circumstances. Of course i would be thankful but only if it happens in sane matter. I would rather die then put someone else in my shoes so i could put on another pair.Use what god gave you and be thankful even if your kidneys fail.God bless you all.

[rush1er]

Yech!!... I wouldn't go to that hospital to have my toe nails clipped!

[auf23]

Disgrace.

[ckelly202]

Steak and Kidney pie anyone ???

[asmaajaz]

That's Absolutely rubbish, plus defaming the name of Islam, that these Innocent have religions motivation to donate their kidney and coming to hospital.

Stupid doctors like Dr Waheed sheik and other like him only shining their business.

Shames on these

[emaadkhan]

sad, sad and just sad...

[Dhonigk]

very sad...but i wonder if they cant even fend for themselves why have so many children and perpetuate poverty

[mimshad]

most poor people try to have many sons so they could have the parents when they get as old as 8

[Dhonigk]

well yes but in the final analysis it really does not have any economic benefit..the children dont get any education and they remain wrapped in a circle of poverty...this is how poverty spreads

[daffodilkhan]

still we are not opening our eyes and these big powers and polititions are killing those poor people on the name of terorism who fight against the rich people. so in my view terorism is actually a fight between rich and poor cause the gape have been so widened ................ what can i say more ..... i am tired comenting like this.....but still we all are stupid

[daffodilkhan]

so my friends here are some causes of terorism, in a country where you can buy a kidney for very less and still the life of donar is miserable cause of debt. so this will be the future of the world according lamarks or what is his name who presented the theory of evolution or the survival for the fitist.

[multiuserinbox]

shame on bloody sellers !

They must be punished and sentenced to death. The cruellest people deals with human organ and take them not more than an animal. Sad !

Wake up World Wake up !

[tasuwer1]

Look the child at 7:39-I don't know y they don't just ruin the politics-They can do everything together-

[SwordSaint90]

As a Pakistani, I feel saddened at the state of healthcare. This country has so much potential - but ignorance, poverty and the tremendous gap in society among ethnic, financial and sectarian lines have made this a fractured nation.

May God bless these people - and may the conditions for these people improve.

[starmanskye]

It seems to me that state regulation would eliminate the unscrupulous middlemen who coerce, intimidate & take advantage of the poor who try to get-ahead by selling their kidneys. Enforcing a ban would only push this trade deeper underground, increasing profits for the doctors & traders -- just as prohibition increases profits for drug racketeers. But a bigger issue is India's chronic poverty, which makes it vulnerable to exploitation by wealthy nations, a legacy of colonialism & 'free trade'.

[wahnano]

Fuck that shit greedy mother fuckers you will roast in hell soon :(

[iiiaaafff]

may God protect and help the poor children

[BawJaws232]

why have so many kids if you live in such horrible poverty?

[SwordSaint90]

It's unfortunate that the social norms and values of the region are still based on the pres-industrial era. More kids means more people to work in the fields, hence more revenue. In this day and age, it is education not numbers that determines the survival of the fittest.

[dodolord]

@BawJaws232 well my friend, quite simply so that these children can help earn money and help out when the folks get old, I knaw this only because I am a Pakistani, albeit I was born and brought up in England, my grandparents were poor back home and they were quite old and frail from a life time of labouring on farms and such, but had many children who from a young age worked on the farm, went to school and did odd jobs, to help out the aged gramps luckily my old man was hard working

[dodolord]

its sad, but only means of survival is to have more children so that by the time your old, you have a huge family to look after you, back in Pakistan, the grandparents never retire, they are still working, and literally retire when their bodies can no longer allow them to work, their only remaining solace is their big family of children and grandchildren who tend to them :)

in my case my old man always drilled it in me son knaw the calue of money and hard work you dont knaw how lucky you are boy

[CartmanLandZ]

amen

[dappachaos]

That FUCKING WHITE SCUM is a FUCKING RETARD... exchanging blood for a drink seems.. easy.. it aint the fucking same as donating a FUCKING KIDNEY!! WHAT A FUCKING BASTARD... I hope the kidney he got from the donor... gets FUCKED up in someway.. Bastard guy..

[JACKDANELL]

MAY GOD BLESS THESE POOR PEOPLE

[BayouBluesMan]

@JACKDANELL god will do nothing , u can do something

[EvilEelofSteel]

@JACKDANELL why god ... people who are hoping for some god are lost

[chavajuarez93]

fuk pakistan

[karlz121]

both my mum's kidneys are failed she's been in the waighting list for a long time i might buy a kidney if i can ?

[scorpion068]

wow this country still belongs in the stone age

[wassap28]

The obvious argument against letting people sell their organs is that it will create a situation where the poor will be selling their organs to get a bit more cash, and the rich will be able to enjoy it.

[p3ppyhar3]

jesus fucking christ

[LoopInc]

Wow This country is a wreck.

[revive40]

And what abt people who come from rich countries with dollars to buy organs?

I know few from Aus who went to China for same thing.

[LoopInc]

Dude he just sold his kidney for $250.

And this is all done illegaly.

If the outsiders manage to get hold on some decent kidney for $250, then it doesnt leave a pretty image for that country.

And i am yet to get a decent picture from Pakistan. From what i have heard this country is by far the most Fucked up country in ASIA sans middle east

[ctawab]

Fucking Fudal lords of pakistan.......

[yawar82]

well,im a doctor and belong to pakistan.and i have no idea abt all dat,but still,it seems to be a mafia

[rob60201]

kidney beans r 1 of my favorite legumes.

[LoopInc]

You mean pulses?

Kidney beans arent legumes

[wickedjigs]

this flipping human race is a plague

[HeadNtheClouds]

That is a nasty looking surgical scar too, it should be done laproscopic. I have had abdominal surgery, cut in 5 places, you can't even see the scars at all, less than an inch cut. This is sickening!

[SwtMsT]

wow, those doctors are dicks too btw

"WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY"

"You're an unwanted creature..." "You have to be a muslim to understand what religious motivation is."

Defensive as if they are..oh I dunno, lying.

lying and swindling the poor.

[hansecheverria]

thats messed up exploiting the poor

[ResidentNotEvil5]

u know something u cant sell kidney in s,pore be sentence 3years jail and $100,000 fine for buyer jail term too

[MountOlivet]

I see nothing wrong with people selling their kidney. Everybody benefits. The donor can make money and some dying person can get the kidney that they need.

[SwtMsT]

some people get paid absolutely NOTHING for their kidney...less than the operation fees..that's not right.

[martiansarepunk]

...at last, not least the end....You could bet your bippy there would be 200,000+ views and several hundred comments if it dealt with thievery.. Another factor that kills shock value is the fact that the subject has been fodder for quite awhile now., even ebay in years past. it's old news.

[martiansarepunk]

(U know, the one where thugs steal a victims organs in the dead of night and then leave the victim to wake up in a tub full of ice). I wouldn't be suprised if half the # views were done with that it with that in mind . Come to find out it's about some poor dude in a 3rd world country who volunteered donation for monetary benefit. As unfortunate and tragic as his story is, losing the shock value of theft, it kills the interests for many of his plight...cont'd...

[martiansarepunk]

...Handing out conditional empathy when it serves their interests or purposes. Sure, it's all that and more, However, it's more likely to be for 2 reasons far simpler than that. It's the same thing that brought me to view the video and comment.  Keywords in the title and subject matter. Seeing the title, the shock value of it intrigued me. It's subject matter seemed like it dealt with the urban legend. of organ theft...cont'd...

[martiansarepunk]

Re: the lack of viewings and comments being posted.

Several issues play factors, most of them given in others previous posts. As well as another I'll add for good measure. Could it be for the fact that, at it's core, it's the timeless tale of heaven and hell, good vs evil, the civilized members of the modern world and the uncivilized savages of the 3rd. Or the modernists apathy of those pleading for empathy...cont'd...

[diljani01]

poor man doesn,t lie

[confusedimigrant]

i am surprised that only 23 comments on this thought provoking documentary.probably because we feel very little about it or is it just our nature to ignore as we are not sufferer or may be it isjust very easy to lookaway and walkaway.

[msalmany]

The translation was sometimes incorrect. The women at the end was NOT saying what the english read. The woman actually said, why are all you sitting here telling them your tales. you have gathered all the women and men from the village and are sitting here in front of these cameras. Cameras have come before and promised aid but we never go anything, you are not going to get anything from these people as well"

[confusedimigrant]

i confirm as i know the language.

[bejius]

Very well at least the could sold it's body parts, guess what there are mafias that kidnapp people and just cut them out and leave them to die, even their eyes are pulled off, it happed here in Argentina some time in the 90'

[kashifen]

this is not about kidney or patients or doctors...it is a sad situation ...and the poverty whcih forces people to do like that....

If donating why always a poor person donating kidney...there are so many worries of poor people not only in pakistan but many places in the world

[iqbal21224]

so sad....doctors using the poor people for their business.

[jacobX99]

yeah, but typical.

[holypandacow]

i mean what is this documentry called and where can i find it?

[holypandacow]

what is this video called??

[HERADORIVIERA]

kidneys with a nice chianti...sup.sup.sup.sup.sup

[geniuswaheed]

its v sad for all of human beings.we all users just leave msgs but why dont we help these people financially.even donating £5 will help them...

[KhmerSerey1]

my besy wishes to the donators,my heart bleed for you,this is very sad.

[Schmoogee]

ORGANized crime.

[LouisianaGatorGirl]

I find it ironic that Journeyman Pictures is exposing Pakistan's kidney mafia, while simultaneously advertising "kidney and liver transplants" in China (see upper right portion of the screen).

[bejius]

That's Google AdSense stupid algorithm see they don't quite know how mafia and organs could possible be related to they just toss you firearms, and cheap transplants in china & india.

[jaunkarachi]

Apart from this whole kidney bussiness we should alos look at the feudalism which is so prevalnet in Pakistan. People in west talk about democracy in Pakistan but they dont know that majority of MPs are feudal lords. When they come in power through "democracy" they simply become more powerful and expolit poor people the same way as shown in the documentary.

[Energyium]

that disgust should not be called doctor

doctor will not do this

where are world doctors to put a stop to this injustice

[Energyium]

pakistan government is

corrupted and very

very injust

its injustice will end with atomic explosion

[Energyium]

pakistani people are good and kind people

pakistan is smart

[rckbttm14]

1 question: how come the U.S. citizen didn't speak? i found that rather odd, that here we have an American laying in a Pakistani hospital and we can't hear a word from him about anything.

[dinonsu]

Very good documentation.

[emmgees]

Amazing, i just wonder if it´s not a LIE that these poor people will donate their kidneys without monetary compensation in return.

[sideshow810]

awesome video

[bollyking2000]

total criminals in pakistan running smuggling mafias

[ANPAKISTANI]

A good effort to highlight exploitation of the poor pakistanis at the hands of those involved in the cruel thriving kidney buisness, especially the doctors shown in the video.And that guy Waheed Sheikh (C.E Aadil hosp) was such a shame while telling a lie so blatantly that the people are donating kidneys because of their religious motivations.

And who is Dr shah (Dr at kidney centre pindi) to ask that " why did you go there and talk to donors? "
