TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY Mihaela RODINA:...

MINGIR, MOLDOVA, REPUBLIC OF: TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY Mihaela RODINA: Baby goat jump under the sight of two girls in the village of Mingir, 80km southwest from Chisinau, 22 March 2007. Almost 80 percent of the population of Moldova live below poverty level. Despite the relative prosperity during the Soviet era when people had tractors to work the land, now they barely have horses and carts. Acording to a medical worker in Mingir, about 40 people in this village of 7,000 are thought to have sold a kidney. The trail in illegal organ-trafficking leads from Moldova to Turkey where kidneys are sold to Israelis, Arabs, and Western Europeans for approximatively 200,000 US dollars.
