Organ Trafficking In Pakistan

Reports of reported figures from hospitals across China that shows the number of organ transplants carried out throughout the country are all inaccurate. There is a massive discrepancy according to the former Canadian lawmaker David Kilgour, human rights lawyer David Matas, and journalist Ethan Gutmann. This anomaly happened because people, whose views conflict with the ruling Chinese Communist Party, are being murdered for their organs. The Communist party says that there are about 10,000 transplants per year, but in fact, 60,000 to 100,000 organs are transplanted each year in Chinese hospitals.
