The Central Criminal Court in the UK has adjourned the alleged organ harvesting case involving Ike Ekweremadu, former deputy president of the senate.
The lawmaker will remain in detention pending the resumption of the trial on October 31st, the court ruled on Thursday during hearing of the case.
The former deputy senate president and Beatrice, his wife, are facing charges bordering on conspiracy to arrange/facilitate the travel of another person with a view to exploitation, namely organ harvesting.
The incident has been mired in controversy following more revelation about the true identity of the organ donor, who was said to not be of legal age to give consent to such medical procedures.
