Bravo for the respectable press

I pay my respect and I record my huge admiration to the daring journalists of Leftist Badeel. They manage in a very short period to achieve several scoops. Their latest scoop about the fearful human organs trade is from the best scoops of the year. Yes many newspapers followed that taboo this year but they managed to present a complete case to the General prosecutor’s office.

The newspaper made a report about the Streets 'children who are forced to sell their organs to private hospitals. The Journalists of Al Badeel managed to record the testimonies of the kids on Videos and took photos for their bodies.

Bravo for the Badeel and also for the Al Masry Al Youm for following this sad report.

By the way may I ask why the official newspapers like Al Ahram, Gomhouria and Al Akhabr do not publish reports like this !!??

Of course this is not the first time some journalist arouse this topic, if you remember the infamous case of Streets’ Kids serial killer from two years ago , this topic was opened and some street Children spoke about some blood transfer trade happening in Alexandria but unfortunately no one then wanted to complete the investigation about this disturbing incident.

By the way from two weeks ago there was a crime which I wanted to comment but I forgot for some reason. Now I remember.

There was a small kid , a doorman 's kid in Al Misr Al Gadida who was killed in a very brutal way.His body was found under the round way. He was stuffed by Cotton in his stomach and was put in a cartoon box.

As soon as the detail of the cotton in his stomach found its way to the media people in his neighbourhood and others like me thought it as an Organs trade crime ,for me it was an indicator of how dangerous this trade had become that it reached to the level of abducting kids but then the police came and announced they arrested the real murderer. He turned to be a paedophile who wanted to raped the kid , but failed and decided to kill him.

Anyhow in either ways I wonder where is Mama Suzanne from all this ?? Is not this an assault on childhood?? or this is like the sexual harassment !!??

This report or rather expose opens two closed the government and the regime ignore completely : The Organs trade and The Streets’ Kids

The Economic situation in Egypt is forcing people to sell their own eyes not only their kids ,oh yes I once copied from Al Wafd newspaper these numbers or rather prices for the organs in Egypt , of course I expect that most of the money is taken by the middle man not to the seller.

  • The price of the Cornea in Egypt is half million pound.T
  • The kidney is for L.E 50,000
  • The price of Liver is for L.E 150,000

Again these prices are for the middle men and it is from old time before the financial crisis !!

The organs donation and transfer will be discussed this parliamentary session by the way . Of course I doubt that such law would combat that terrible trade because something international.
