Days after the Deutsche Welle, German media ZDF, and 'Der Spiegel' alleged that an Eldoret-based private hospital is at the centre of an international organ trafficking, the heads of the hospital have responded to the matter.
Speaking during a morning show with Spice FM on Wednesday, April 16, the vice president of the hospital said that all organ transplants in the facility are conducted within the law.
Additionally, the vice president further claimed that patients who go to the hospital for organ transplants are the ones responsible for looking for a donor, a process she denies the hospital is involved in. The vice president further refuted claims that the hospital receives money from organ donors, stressing that the facility only receives money from the services rendered to the client.
