BLOOD RACKET: HIV-POSITIVE MAN ARRESTED AFTER SELLING BLOOD IN INDIA. (PHOTO).


 A blood racket has been exposed at Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) following the arrest of an HIV-positive man involved in selling blood. Brokers were found selling blood for Rs. 2,000 per unit, with many youths from Dhubri and Mankachar participating in this illegal trade. On Monday, authorities apprehended two brokers, one identified as Lalbahadur Sheikh, revealing the extent of the operation at GMCH.


Alarmingly, the second individual apprehended, who admitted to selling blood for money, is also HIV-positive and had donated blood at GMCH just a month ago, unknowingly jeopardizing numerous lives. Security personnel intercepted him while he attempted to sell blood again.


He claimed he was unaware of his HIV-positive status, stating, “I did not know. Believe me, I would never do such a thing if I had known,” and mentioned that he had previously sold blood once for money. Meanwhile, Lalbahadur Sheikh informed reporters that many youths are coerced into selling blood for as little as Rs. 1,500 to Rs. 2,000 per unit. “My son has been suffering from jaundice. I received a call offering Rs. 2,000 for blood. I thought of using the money for his treatment,” he explained.


While speaking to reporters, Sheikh received a call from Yunus Ali, who allegedly organized the blood sale and promised to pay both men. Authorities are now searching for Ali, identified as a key figure in the racket, and the police have launched a manhunt to apprehend him as they continue their crackdown on the blood trade at the hospital.
