The Great Organ Bazaar
Is it right to buy and sell human spare parts? In India, E600 is the going price for a kidney. The cost of the same organ from an executed prisoner in China, plus a transplant in a Chinese military hospital, is
£5,000. Outlawed in the west, the trade flourishes elsewhere.
Peter Gill reports from China, India, the Gulf and the USA on the ethical and human issues raised by the trade and the attempts to control it. ProducerGiselle Portenier
