"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Health regarding the alarming rise of illegal organ harvesting, particularly kidney harvesting, in Eldoret City and its environs. In June 2024, a distressing case was reported to me by Mrs Leah Chepkorir regarding her 22-year-old son, Mr Ammon Kipruto Melly. According to the report, her son’s kidney was harvested at Mediheal Hospital after it was cured by the facility, with an offer to donate the organ at a fee of Ksh600,000. Thereafter, he developed medical complications associated with organ harvesting. Subsequently, this incident was reported to Langas Police Station under Occurrence Book No.41, dated 31st August 2024."
