Dharmapuri: The modus operandi of the kidney brokers arrested in Dharmapuri resembles the organ trade racket busted in 2002 by the Mandya police of Mysore, in neighbouring Karnataka.
The Dharmapuri police busted a kidney racket leading to the arrest of two, including an illegal donor, on Monday, and three more people on Tuesday for being agents of a kidney broker now in jail.The police arrested the organ traders on information given by kidney donor S. Balasubramanian, 37, a labourer of Maniambadi village, 20 km from Dharmapuri.
Balasubramanian lead the police to Sankagiri of Salem where they arrested N.S. Ayyavu, 51, for operating as kidney broker against the transplantation of human organs Act-1994. Information extracted from Ayyavu helped the police arrest his associates P. Vadivelu, 46, N. Shahjahan, 45, and R. Srinivasan, 35.
The police have arrested five, including Balasubramanian, and they are on the lookout for others. The special team that is probing the case compares the modus oprenadi of the accused to similar incidents. The operation of the accused allegedly using fake documents for renal transplant looks like the kidney racket busted by the Mandya police in Mysore.
Investigation revealed that the group sold more than 500 kidneys, allegedly in connivance with corporate hospitals in Bengaluru and Mysore. Most of the illegal donors identified by Mandya police are from Hosur of Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri and Salem.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
