China ‘selling prisoners’ organs’ – Jill McGivering

From BBC News (link)

Top British transplant surgeons have accused China of harvesting the organs of thousands of executed prisoners a year to sell for transplants.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the British Transplantation Society condemned the practice as unacceptable and a breach of human rights.

The move comes less than a week after Chinese officials publicly denied the practice.

In March, China said it would ban the sale of human organs from July.
