DIBRUGARH, Feb 11: The Dibrugarh district unit of Sadou Asom Mottock Yuba-Chatra Sanmilan (SAMYCS) alleged that a local nursing home was involved in organ trade during a press meet held here today. The statement comes after an employee of Oil India Limited (OIL), Dharampal Balmiki, brought the allegation that the very same establishment stole one of his kidneys. According to Balmiki, he was admitted in Damanis Nursing Home on August 5, 2003 and operated on for kidney stones on August 11. He discovered about his missing organ after he underwent an ultrasound in November last year. The SAMYCS district committee said that the nursing home failed to come up with certain facts demanded by various organizations. It demanded cancellation of registration of the establishment and a high-level inquiry into the matter. The organization further said the nursing home should be closed till the inquiry is concluded.
