NCRI – On September 20, Eghtesadnews.com, a state-run website published an advertisement for selling body organs that had been posted in Pasteur Square in Tehran. This square is in the vicinity of the headquarters of Iranian regime’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei and the office of the regime’s President Hassan Rouhani.
This advertisement reads: “Eye cornea, bone marrow, liver blood type B+ for immediate sale.”
This website wrote that many government officials probably pass this advertisement for selling body organs every day on their way to work.
Such advertisements are posted on the walls by the very poor who have no money to buy food or receive medical treatment.
There is rampant poverty in oil-rich Iran which ranks eighth in the world for natural resources and mines. The ruling mullahs’ regime spends most of country’s resources on its nuclear bomb project, domestic suppression, and meddling and terrorism in the Middle East.
Reports from Tehran indicate that these advertisements may readily be seen in other streets of the capital.
Some pregnant women living rough on the streets of Tehran are forced to sell their unborn babies in advance out of sheer poverty and destitution, an official of the mullahs’ regime in Iran acknowledged last month.
Poverty among homeless people in 13 neighborhoods of District 12 of the Iranian capital has reached unbearable levels, university professor Dr. Chit Chian, who is a member of the 30-member Society Workgroup of the Tehran Municipality, said.
“Unfortunately in these neighborhoods we have witnessed the sale of children,” he said, adding that he had spent several nights among the homeless people in the capital to get a true picture.
“The situation is so critical that babies are being bought in advance while in their mother’s womb for the going rate of 1.75 million Tomans ($585),” Dr. Chit Chian added.
His shocking remarks were published by the state-run Mehr news agency. Other state-run dailies also published his account.
