I wonder if it is possible that they got the idea from hearing the urban legend. Was that particular legend international or was it confined to the US?

I’d never heard that story before I read it in your book. I guess it’s pretty much confined to the West.

But this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. There have been such scandals before, with people selling their kidneys etc. for money. I think that this is something similar, except that many of those who sold their kidneys, died later because in addition to kidneys, other essential organs were removed as well.

Actually, I think it is more profitable to steal children in India for Adoption.

From fiction to reality. It’s hard to imagine getting yourself in the situation where your kidney could be taken.
