From our online archive

HYDERABAD: Days after Banjara Hills police arrested an MBA student in connection with a kidney racket, they are trying to identify city doctors involved in the racket. 

D Pavan Srinivas (25), from Vanasthalipuram, duped a woman by collecting Rs 34 lakh from her on the pretext of providing a kidney donor for her ailing husband.

Police said Srinivas was in touch with some city-based doctors for information on kidney transplantation in Sri Lanka and Turkey. In return for giving out donor details, Srinivas would offer a commission to city-based doctors. Police are likely to take him into custody to get details of donors and doctors.
