In a bizarre incident, two men in China’s eastern Jiangsu Province apparently tried to sell their kidneys for Apple’s latest offering, the iPhone 6s.
One of the men identified as Wu, wanted an iPhone 6s but could not afford it – at which point, his friend Huang suggested they sell a kidney each for money.
The two found an illegal agent on the internet who asked them to take medical examinations at a hospital in Nanjing, the state-run China Daily reported.
However, when they arrived at the hospital, the agent did not turn up as promised.
Wu, at this point, reconsidered selling their organs and asked his friend Huang to stop the plan – but the latter did not listen.
Wu then called the police, but Huang ran away and has been out of reach ever since.
