Parents of an eight-year-old girl want an investigation after she died in a clinic in India and had her organs removed without them knowing. :rule:
A girl who died while vacationing in India was missing her internal organs when her body was returned to Britain, according to her parents who fear she may have been the victim of the illegal trade in human body parts.
Gurkiren Kaur, 8, died moments after a doctor treating her for dehydration in India’s Punjab region gave her an injection two weeks ago, according to her family.
Gurkiren Kaur is seen with brother Simram and parents Santokh Singh Loyal and Amrit Kaur as they set off for their holiday in India.
Gurkiren was visiting India on her first overseas vacation when she became ill on April 2 with a mild case of dehydration, according to her family. After being given an injection at a clinic, her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she quickly became unresponsive, her parents said.
Her mother, Amrit, and father, Santokh, said they agreed to allow the India hospital’s doctors to perform a biopsy in order to establish a cause of death - as required by Indian law.
When the girl’s body arrived back in the U.K., a British coroner called Gurkiren’s parents to say it was missing the organs needed to investigate her cause of death, the parents said. It is common practice in Britain for an autopsy to be carried out in U.K. on citizens who die overseas.
