Police arrest organ harvester after foiled attempt to kidnap girl


Gallant operatives of the Nigeria Police, have arrested a man linked to a sinister organ harvesting syndicate in Imo State.

The swift action came as vigilant operatives on patrol spotted a blue and white bus that was forcibly transporting a young girl to an undisclosed location, where the suspects intended to k3ill her and harvest her organs.

During the pursuit, the victim managed to escape by jumping from the moving vehicle, leading to her immediate rescue. 

Police spokesperson reported that the operatives engaged the suspects in a hot chase, which resulted in the abandonment of their vehicle. 

While one individual was apprehended, others fled into the nearby bush.

The incident has raised alarm about the prevalence of such criminal networks, often referred to locally as “yahoo plus.” 

Unlike traditional internet fraudsters, these individuals are involved in the alarming trade of human organs, operating through a web of connections.

Authorities are urging the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities, as the threat of organ trafficking continues to pose a serious danger to communities.
