Placenta smuggling probe deepens
The Federal Probe Bureau (FIA) has continued its probe into the alleged recovery and smuggling of human placenta seized from an illegal human organ processing facility operating from houses in upscale sectors of Islamabad.
Three Chinese nationals and two Pakistani suspects, whose four-day in-person custody ends on Monday, will be produced before a judiciary to seek an extension of their custody.
The FIA has also widened the scope of its probe to hospitals from where the Chinese and Pakistani suspects allegedly obtained human placenta after childbirth.
According to details, acting on intel received by FIA Islamabad Zone Director Shahzad Nadeem Bukhari, a joint team of the FIA Corporate Offense Circle Islamabad and the Human Organ Transplant Body raided a house in Sector F-7/1, Islamabad.
During the targeted action, the team found a complete plant allegedly set up for the illegal processing of human organs, particularly human placenta.
The probe revealed that the suspects were illegally processing and drying human placenta at the facility.
