A disturbing new method used by criminals to harvest body parts from unsuspecting victims has been uncovered in Benue State, according to the 24 Hours Road Accident Victims Support Initiative (TRAVSI).

The non-governmental organisation raised the alarm during a stakeholders’ town hall meeting organised by the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Makurdi.

Gaddafi Asemenya, founder and CEO of TRAVSI, revealed that criminals are using flashy vehicles to intentionally hit pedestrians or motorbike riders.

Under the guise of transporting the injured victims to hospitals for medical care, these criminals instead divert them to undisclosed locations where their organs were harvested, leaving the victims’ bodies abandoned, Asemenya said.
