Cabinet Secretary Duale Threatens Action Over Alleged Organ Trafficking - August 2025

Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale has issued severe warnings to former Kesses MP and Mediheal Hospital owner Swarup Mishra, threatening prosecution, deportation, and citizenship revocation. These accusations stem from reports by German media outlets implicating Mediheal in an international organ trafficking syndicate. Duale's threats are a direct response to Mishra's alleged involvement in an international organ harvesting scheme, with the aim of revoking his citizenship and deporting him to India. This strong stance highlights the government's intent to crack down on serious criminal activities.
