Kanpur: Six people associated with a recently busted kidney racket, running in three different states as well as overseas, have been recently arrested by the police. A Delhi doctor is on the list of the investigation team for being associated with the gang.
The concerned doctor from Delhi, now identified as Ketan Kaushik, allegedly an associate of the gang is being looked by the investigation team as he provided the kidney to the overseas clients and charged them higher compared to the Indian recipient.
The said kidney racket which was recently busted was apparently flourishing for the past 6 years. The mastermind of the racket hails from Kolkata and his aides operated it from Kanpur, Lucknow, Agra, Meerut, Noida and Delhi.
The racket came in the notice of the authorities after they were informed about a casual discussion of the plot by the gang members in a local restaurant.
The police officials set up different teams to investigate on the matter under the supervision of Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Kanpur Anant Deo. Two different teams were sent to Delhi and West Bengal to intensify the probe.
