Europe condemns organ harvesting in China

Chinese authorities have been challenged by the European Parliament to halt the systematic killing of political prisoners and the harvesting of their organs for profit.

The parliament has passed a resolution condemning “state-sanctioned organ harvesting from... prisoners of conscience in the People’s Republic of China, including from large numbers of Falun Gong practitioners”.

The resolution calls on member states to publicly condemn the practice, and ensure all of those involved are prosecuted.
