More facts have emerged in the ongoing case of former deputy Senate president Ike Ekweremadu, and his wife, Beatrice.

 

TRIXX NG learnt that the Ekweremadus’ were being charged for bringing the 15-year-old boy from Nigeria to the UK with the claim that he was to be given a better life in the UK but was actually to harvest his organ.

Ekweremadu’s daughter has a kidney-related disease and has been on dialysis for quite some time. It is believed that the plan was to use an organ from the boy on his daughter.

The prosecutors told the court today that the former Senate President also procured a passport for the boy and claimed he was 21 years old but discovered that he was 15 years old.

 

Ekweremadu and his wife had separate legal representations and prayed the court to release them on bail but their prayer was however dismissed by the Magistrate. The couple has surrendered their passports to the UK government.

 

The couple was arrested at Heathrow airport, on their way to Istanbul, Turkey and according to the prosecutors, it is believed that they were on their way to procure another organ as they were unable to harvest the organ of the boy. The prosecutors also stated that $20, 000 was found on Mr. Ekweremadu.

 

According to AriseTV, the red flag that stopped the organ from not being harvested came after the boy truthfully disclosed his age to the doctors at the Royal Free hospital in the UK. The doctor reportedly cancelled the procedure. The boy was taken from a family who according to the prosecutors treated him like a slave, after he escaped and found his way to the police where an investigation started, leading to the arrest of the couple.

 

After much deliberation, the Magistrate ordered their remand in custody till July 7 for the next hearing on the case.
