Urgent Notice from The World Organisation to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) -- regarding the sudden increase in organ transplants in Tianjin First Central Hospital in late March 2006

According to reliable sources, the staff at Tianjin First Central Hospital (also known as Oriental Organ Transplant Centre) performed a dramatically increased number of liver and kidney transplants in late March 2006. The surgeries were always performed at night. The operating rooms are located on 11th and 12th floors; monitoring rooms are on the 6th floor; and patients' rooms are on 4th and 7th floors. Patients preparing to receive the organs wait in several hotels in Tianjin City including: Huaxia Hotel (3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th floors) and Tiancai Hotel (24th and 25th floors).

The WOIPFG is paying close attention to this matter and has released the following urgent notice:

After the revelation of labour camps harvesting Falun Gong practitioners' bodily organs for profit and the existence of a huge organ bank of living human beings in China, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) immediately passed a law prohibiting the sale of human organs. However, the CCP deferred application of the law to July 1st, 2006. It is likely that the CCP will murder witnesses and destroy evidence prior to this date. At this critical time, the staff at Tianjin First Central Hospital has suddenly increased the number of liver and kidney transplants being performed. The timing, speed, and quantity of the organ transplant operations are all very suspicious.

According to rules accepted by hospitals worldwide, complete and detailed personal information about the donor must be available for each case of organ transplant. The information should include the donor's gender, age, address, profession, cause of death, physical state immediate after death, blood type, health condition, and a lawfully notarised statement from the donor voluntarily donating the organ(s).

The WOIPFG is paying close attention to each transplant case performed in Tianjin First Central Hospital, especially operations performed after WOIPFG's notice regarding organ transplants via labour camps. People who authorise or directly participate in the operations and people who provide or buy organs are all primary targets of the investigation. People involved in transplant operations where personal information about the donor is incomplete or falsified will all be listed as murder suspects and prosecuted.
