The Organ Harvesters
File on 4 travels from London to Lagos to investigate the UK's first case and conviction for organ harvesting, which saw one of Nigeria's most powerful politicians put behind bars.
File on 4 tells the story of a young street trader from Lagos who revealed a conspiracy that took down one of Nigeria鈥檚 most powerful politicians. The young man was tested, trafficked and tricked into a plot to take his kidney, to donate to the politician鈥檚 sick daughter in the UK. His conviction - the first of its kind in the UK - has led to police investigating more potential cases.
