israeli organ trafficking ring busted.

Ukrainian police have smashed an Israeli-run organ-trafficking network illegally recruiting organ donors to send their body parts to Israel.

Ukrainian authorities said on Friday that twelve people, most of them Israelis, were arrested for taking part in a scheme to recruit organ donors from Ukraine and other former Soviet countries via internet and transplant the organs into Israelis who had ordered them in advance.

The network, which sought mostly kidneys, offered as much as USD 10,000 per body part and according to Ukraine's interior ministry most of the organ donors were impoverished young women.

The head of the ministry's department on human trafficking, Yuriy Kucher, said the transplant surgeries, which cost up to USD 200,000 an operation, were performed in Kiev, Azerbaijan and Ecuador.

Four surgeons are among the arrested. The Israeli head of the ring was arrested last month.

Initial investigations revealed that the ring's profits totaled an estimated USD 18 million a year. The illegal network was operating for three years.

Those arrested could face up to 15 years in prison if convicted of human trafficking.

The latest Israeli-involved organ scandal comes nearly four months after another organ trafficking ring was discovered in Israel, which offered USD 100,000 for kidneys in its advertisements in local newspapers.

While the organization sold the kidneys for USD 140,000, some of the organ donors received no money after their kidneys were removed in countries, including Azerbaijan and the Philippines.

A retired Israeli army brigadier general and two lawyers were arrested in connection with this trafficking.

@ProjectRedPill1

I don't doubt this story is genuine, I'm just saying PRESSTV is also a shady media outlet. Not half as shady as the state of Israel though...

@razor247ex Why would Israeli press publicly admit to an organ trafficking ring operating right in their own backyard if it wasn't true? (see previous comment) Perhaps Haaretz Daily News is anti-Semitic?

A recent related news story that's just as credible, and just as damning:

"Man pleads guilty to illegally trafficking kidneys from Israel where they were later transplanted into American patients at prestigious US hospitals." - Friday, November 04, 2011 by: Jonathan Benson, staff writer

[SyndicalistTimes]

you cannot trust PRESSTV.

[TheCossackmate]

Izrael goverment is also responsible for this, that's for sure!

[razor247ex]

@JDGillis61 Haaretz is also known for low credibility of their stories regarding Israeli-Palestinian conflict...

[JDGillis61]

@razor247ex - This story was also reported in Israeli papers such as Haaretz and is 100% true. Israelis prove every day that they have no moral or ethical standards, so their involvement in such Mengellian schemes is no surprise.

[razor247ex]

This "media" here is some load of biased shit.

A woman in a head scarf reporting about Israel?... Didn't need to hear her speak, already knew what she has to say.
