Organ transplant rackets are being investigated by security authorities and immigration officials.

"It appears Kurt was upset at the cat when the cat shattered a vase and removed a light fixture from the kitchen cupboard," a source stated.

“It appears Kurt was upset at the cat when the cat shattered a vase and removed a light fixture from the kitchen cupboard,” a source stated.

“What he does after that, though, is reprehensible.

“Kurt slaps it, kicks it, then kicks it with his shoes.” “It appeared that the poor cat was afraid.”

On Sunday afternoon, Yoan Zouma, Zouma’s brother, shot the terrifying video and published it on Snapchat, a day after the center-back played for West Ham in the FA Cup.

“This is a very distressing video,” said an RSPCA spokeswoman. It is never ethical to kick, strike, or slap an animal, whether for punishment or otherwise.”

The Sun has reached out to Seed Charity for comment.

Namazzi died on December 5, 2021, but her body was returned to her family on January 17 of this year. Although the postmortem report has not been made public, family members believe that a pathologist at the Mulago morgue discovered Namazzi’s two kidneys had been removed and her private parts had been hacked off.

However, Agnes Igoye, the Deputy Coordinator of the Anti-Human Trafficking Department, claims that they were forced to come out in order to ensure that an inquiry is carried out after finding that Judith Nakintu was brought back with a missing kidney a fortnight ago.

Nakintu is reportedly receiving therapy under the supervision of relatives and undercover security because the perpetrators who coordinated her organ removal are feared to be able to kill her. People moving overseas for domestic employment, according to Igoye, are a significant target.

“When it comes to organ removal, doctors are involved. We want to make it clear that organ trade is a global phenomenon. According to the UNODC report, many people from developing countries are being targeted. Outside of Uganda, there is considerable trading. We don’t see many people brought in here to have their organs removed. “We’ll have to wait till the investigation is completed,” Igoye explains.

Organ transplants are listed as one of the important medical inventions in the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) 2015 report. Organ transplants have a long history dating back to the 1950s, when the first successful transplant was performed.

In 2013, 118,127 kidneys, livers, hearts, lungs, pancreas, and small bowel transplants were performed, according to the Global Observatory and Database on Donation and Transplantation.

According to the data, kidney transplants accounted for 79,000 of the total, while liver transplants accounted for 25,000.

According to CID spokesperson Charles Twine, they are unable to determine whether the victims’ organs were removed prior to a thorough postmortem investigation or a medical evaluation for living victims. Twine said the investigations are hard and take time because the alleged crimes were committed in multiple jurisdictions, citing Namazzi’s case as an example.

“Namazzi is said to have been slain in Egypt. She’d gone into labor. Our inquiries are thorough and formal for us. Given that the alleged death or murder occurred in a different jurisdiction, the investigation is complicated. “It happened in Egypt,” Twine explained.

It will also involve the DPP’s office, the Attorney General’s office, Interpol, and the Department of Foreign Affairs, according to Twine. Nonetheless, Twine claims that the postmortem report may not be made public because it will be crucial evidence for prosecution.

According to the UNODC, $600 million was made via illegal organ transplants. From removal to transplant, the kidney lasts 48 hours, the pancreatic segment 12 to 18 hours, the liver segment 12 to 18 hours, and the lung rob 2 to 4 hours.
