Organ Theft

 Who knew that organs could be of such importance today? In a vastly expanded market, smugglers are taking organs of the dead without permission. And sometimes, they take them while the person is alive. It is actually more profitable than drug trading and prostitution. Where is this happening? In every possible vicinity of the world. Bedouin smugglers in Egypt have been reported to be “stealing organs from refugees who are unable to pay their demands for large amounts of cash to take them into Israel” (Pleitgan). Traffickers are selling these organs for top dollar to people who are said to be in “desperate need” of viable organs. One dead body of an Egyptian “organ donor” was inspected by Dr. Fakhry Saleh, who reported that “the operation was conducted no more than 48 hours before death, indicated by the freshness of the scars” (Pleitgan). This thievery is focused upon the poor of the country and the operation is completed while the victim is alive. These victims die, and their organs are sold started at $20,000 a piece. Although the local government knows of these atrocities, they have not been able to pinpoint the exact location and thus have made no lawful motion. All over the world, people are being victimized for their organs. Underneath, I have left a link for further information on the topic...
