Organ Harvesting – Photo of Ike Ekweremadu in UK court and letter he wrote British High Commission about a kidney donation to his daughter
A photo of former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu in a UK court where he was arraigned for allegedly bringing a child to the UK for alleged organ harvesting, has been shared online.
TSB reported earlier that Ike Ekweremadu, former deputy senate president, and his wife, Beatrice, were arrested over the alleged crime.
In a statement released, the metropolitan police said the couple was charged to court on Thursday, June 23, following an investigation by the police specialist crime team. The police mentioned that the investigation was launched after detectives were alerted to potential offenses under modern slavery legislation in May 2022.
Shortly after the arraignment, it’s been revealed that Ike Ekweremadu wrote a letter to the British high commission about a kidney donation for his daughter.
In the letter, the former deputy senate president said he was writing in support of a visa applicant who was scheduled for “medical investigations for a kidney donation to Ms Sonia Ekweremadu”.
He said the donor and his daughter “will be at the Royal Free Hospital London”, adding that he would “be providing the necessary funding”.
