"The men said, 'We have removed your kidney, and you better not breathe a word about it.'... How can I support my family now and bring home the bread? I cannot do heavy construction work now - I feel weak and dizzy all the time “ Saleem was the latest in a long list of poor laborers who had come to Gurgaon to work and lost their kidneys as a result. Police say they were victims of a major organ- trafficking racket based in the city for nearly a decade. http://www.boston.com/news/world/asia/articles/2008/01/31/india_u ncovers_an_illegal_kidney_ring/
