Former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu and his wife appeared in a
London court yesterday, ahead of their TRIAL for organ harvesting, however his
accused daughter was unable to attend as she is in hospital.

He is accused along with his wife Beatrice, daughter Sonia and a doctor of bringing
a 21-year-old man from Nigeria to have his kidney removed, so that it could be given
to their ailing daughter.

The court however adjourned soon after convening, in order for prosecutors to read
the report.

The accuser is said to have raised the alarm after refusing to consent to the
procedure, following preliminary tests at a north London hospital.

The Ekweremadus were arrested in June last year at London’s Heathrow airport after
flying into the UK.
