Five people in Chenzhou city in Hunan Province face charges of the illegal trading of a kidney from a teenager who bought an iPhone and an iPad with the earnings, Xinhua reported. The five have been charged with causing intentional injury.

Defendant He Wei, who was penniless and frustrated over gambling debts, sought to make enormous earnings through illegal kidney trading. He asked Yin Shen to look for donors through online chat rooms and Tang Shimin to lease an operating room from Su Kaizong, the contractor of a local hospital's urology department.

Song Zhongyu, a surgeon from a hospital in Yunnan Province, conducted the kidney transplant from a 17-year-old high school student, surnamed Wang, to a recipient in April last year. He received about 220,000 yuan for the activity and gave Wang 22,000 yuan.

Wang now suffers from renal insufficiency and his condition is deteriorating.

據(jù)新華社報(bào)道，“少年賣腎”案５名涉案人在湖南省郴州市被以非法買賣人體器官提起公訴，該名少年用賣腎換來的錢買了蘋果iPhone手機(jī)和iPad平板電腦。5人涉嫌故意傷害罪。

被告人何偉因賭博欠債窮途潦倒，遂企圖通過非法腎移植牟取暴利，便邀被告人尹申為其上網(wǎng)尋找非法移植的腎源。何偉又通過被告人唐世民找到某醫(yī)院男性泌尿科承包人蘇開宗為其提供移植手術(shù)便利。

去年4月，云南省某醫(yī)院醫(yī)生宋忠于為17歲高中生王某做了人體活體腎臟移植手術(shù)。他從中獲利約22萬元，支付給王某2.2萬元。

目前，被害人王某身體狀況越來越差，檢查結(jié)果為腎功能不全。
