became the perfect targets for the illegal organ trade in india it's become known as the red market every year one hundred thousand indians need organ replacements a demand that drives an illegal supply with some organs even being sold to a small percentage of desperate transplant tourists in one thousand nine hundred four the indian government has a law meant to regulate organ donation in this country and was supposed to get an organ from a donor who was in some way known said even though each transplant was supposed to be approved by a committee of doctors it's almost impossible for anyone to stop money transactions from happening under the table in general when a recipient finds out that he or she needs an organ donor they normally approach friends or family for a match when those options are exhausted rogue doctors or hospital staff can introduce the recipient to approach usually
3:13 pm
a former illegal donor two who can scout nearby poorer neighborhoods for someone who is willing to see. sell their kidneys and go under the knife for their members and for my good news for the. roots of this that it is the law. though doctor falls short of a blind eye. to transplants from the joiner to the recipient take place in the hospital simultaneously to donor ends up making a little over a thousand dollars while the brokers can profit almost double that. i went to the group or he said he will give me fifty thousand rupees for my kidney it was supposed to be much more but the broker cheated us donors also frequently are robbed of their health before i used to run around and work a lot but now i can do as much work as they used to i find it difficult even to leave the quart of water i can go to work i have severe pain in my abdomen and my
3:14 pm
chest only and while horror stories of the red market are exchanged among locals those with no options left are forced to take extreme measures sacrificing their health just to stay alive preassure either archie chennai india. there's been a second spill of the north sea oil rig belonging to shell it follows one last week which is now been reduced to just two barrels per day but with an estimated two hundred tons having leaked into the water over six days environmentalists say the cleanup could take some time this is thought to be the worst spill in british waters in more than a decade well let's get more on the story from. an energy analyst from the environmental organization platform adam thanks very much indeed for joining us and just first what we know about this second oil spill do you know anything about that well shows crime in. cancer. rates but. we don't. both.
3:15 pm
rely on shelves. and i wasn't. all right what we do know though is officially i understand it more than two hundred tons of all have been spilled into an area of what something like one hundred square miles could you put this in perspective for us just just how serious could it be. we must. not see things but the us. approaching worker it's not. a contrast many people are referring to a lot of nuts from disaster. but i think what's important here is that the u.k. government has been rather smart in planning that it's regulatory breasts. now and it was leant against the kinds of things that could happen. that will
3:16 pm
happen in the four months of the last year. this particular spill calls for those crimes and. could you perhaps tell us about the environmental impact at this stage is as much known about that and indeed the economic impact when we think about the area being pretty rich in fishing grounds for commercial fishing it is in and location closed so. there's a number or. a period of the year for breeding. program both. on and. sort of share was having difficulty in the secondly because of all the marine growth. so there's definitely a sense to really work those of. us in with what charles is in this for since these are highly controversial. on the uses question was for the use for.
3:17 pm
smaller boats and more difficult for. proper oceans are actually. more for food or. are not often the writers to get into or in the sense to look for systems and so not only you critical in the way that shell is trying to solve this crisis but also what about they responded. to this they've rejected criticism that they did in fact respond promptly and properly over this but does that really appear to be the case and if so if not coming expect any tough response from you care thoughts on the way that show is handled this so far where we do know which. ones on how it was in order for or. even. report on how radical should come in from shore certainly unsure. about what our show has on the east's very small bits of information and those.

3:19 pm
during the duration of the certainly if not the drone war but they haven't killed a civilian from iowa for us. our evidence suggests entirely the contrary we were hearing rumors of over us officials in washington trying to cast aspersions on our study before it was even published. for example trying to link with someone they were collaborating with us. and also raising doubts about the validity of our research itself we went back and looked at over two thousand individual media reports from pakistani u.s. u.k. international media looking at the strikes and then once we've actually untangled that process and got the clearest idea of what looks like a place we don't cross reference with a host of material which included legal studies case notes of lawyers who are for i think are going to have to civilians from pakistan intelligence documents us secret cables that were leaked by wiki leaks earlier this year and so on so we're trying
3:20 pm
