Five arrested in China after boy sells kidney to buy iPhone, iPad | Chinese police has reportedly arrested five
people after a 17-year-old boy sold his kidney to buy an Apple iPhone and iPad.

to state-run Xinhua news agency, the group received around 35,000 dollars for
the transplant. The group behind the operation have been charged with causing
