Odd to me that your question -- a genuine question -- would be downvoted.

  Probably because it’s received quite a bit of attention. If you’ve been reading HN for a while, particularly articles about the recent injustices in China, you’ve likely already encountered such claims.

I often hear that uyghurs organs are sold as pure/halal organs to muslims from Saudi Arabia (and other rich muslims countries). If it is true -- and I think it is -- that is indeed absolutly abominable. https://www.saveuighur.org/the-economics-of-chinas-organ-harvesting/ https://www.saveuighur.org/the-economics-of-chinas-organ-har... https://theircc.org/organharvesting/ https://theircc.org/organharvesting/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_harvesting_from_Falun_Gong_practitioners_in_China https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_harvesting_from_Falun_Go...

Directly from Enver Tohti, a Chinese doctor who was involved in organ harvesting: https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/surgeon-claims-china-still-harvests-1816592 https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/surgeon-cla... > But when Tohti arrived at the destination, he was shocked to find at least 10 prisoners had been shot in a field by a firing squad. > Armed police waved the surgeon and his medical team over and directed them to a man lying unconscious on blood-soaked ground. > Tohti said: “He’d been shot in the right-hand side of the chest but was still alive. > “I told my chief surgeon he wasn’t dead but he ordered me to remove the man’s liver and kidneys there and then – and to be quick about it. I was ordered not to give the man any anaesthetic.”
