While Indians are notorious for hawking their kidneys online, the Chinese have given it a tech angle. A Chinese teenager has sold his kidney to buy an iPhone and an iPad. The official Xinhua News Agency however, didn't disclose the actual models of the Apple devices purchased. Wang, a 17-year-old high school student, received $3500 (Rs 1,75,000 approx) for his spare organ. However, the faeces hit the fan, when his mother demanded to know how he had managed to buy two Apple devices.
The authorities have charged five people for causing intentional injury. This includes the surgeon, a hospital contractor, and brokers who scouted a buyer online and arranged for an operating room. Hopefully, this is the last time Wang will be selling organs for an iDevice.
