Outlaw

The Resume

    (circa 1967- )
    Born in India
    Resided in Brampton, Ontario and India
    Wanted by Interpol (international police) for stealing kidneys from up to 500 living donors and performing illegal transplants in Gurgaon, India (January 2008)
    Arrested in Nepal (February 7, 2008)

Why he might be annoying:

    He has been nicknamed ‘Dr. Horror’ and ‘Dr. Kidney’ by the Indian press.
    He harvested kidneys from impoverished Indian workers by enticing them with job offers, then threatening them at gunpoint.
    His doctors performed illegal transplants on wealthy patients from all over the world.
    He had at least six fake identities and passports.
    He escaped a raid on his Indian clinics, possibly because he had been warned in advance (January 2008).
    He was arrested in 1994 for running a kidney ring but jumped bail and adopted a new name.
    Many of his donors are permanently disabled and unable to support their families.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He proves that those stories about kidney thieves are not just urban myths.
    His wife and children have been forced to seclude themselves in their Canadian home.
    He brought his neighbors presents from India when he went abroad.
    His first wife left him when he was arrested in 1994.
    Several private hospitals in India may have been secretly involved in his kidney ring.
    His case highlights the worldwide shortage of kidneys available for legal transplants.
