Last week, police in Gurgaon, a suburb of the capital Delhi, raided a house which was used to carry out illegal kidney transplants.Hundreds of poor labourers were tricked into selling kidneys, officials says.
Trade in human organs is banned in India but many continue to sell their kidneys to clients, including Westerners, waiting for transplants.
Gurgaon is an affluent suburb of Delhi, home to high-rise apartment blocks and call centres.
The article doesn't say how the laborers are "tricked" into selling their kidneys, but it does say that they are paid $2500.
