JAKARTA - In order to uncover cases of alleged buying and selling of human organs, the Interpol Polri coordinated with the Indonesian Embassy in Brazil. This step is to determine whether one of the Indonesian fashion designers was involved in the allegation.

The Head of the General Information Section (Kabag Penum) of the National Police, Kombes Pol. Gatot Repli Handoko, said that this step was taken to quickly find out the progress of the case being handled by the Brazilian Federal Police.

"NCB Jakarta is also coordinating with the Indonesian Embassy in Brazil," said Gatot, quoted from Antara, Monday, February 28.

Previously, the Interpol Police in Jakarta had sent a letter to Interpol Brazil, which was also copied to Interpol Singapore, asking for confirmation regarding the alleged sale and purchase of human organs.

The letter was sent on Thursday, February 24, yesterday. However, he continued, until now the letter has not received a reply from the two authorities.

"Reportedly, we have not received a reply to letters from Interpol Brazil and Interpol Singapore," he said.

For this reason, Interpol Polri is coordinating with the Indonesian Embassy in Brazil to monitor the progress of handling the case.

"For the next step, the Indonesian Embassy will continue to monitor the progress of the case from the Brazilian Federal Police and inform the results to Interpol Indonesia," said Gatot.

It is widely reported that the Brazilian Federal Police conducted a large-scale raid on the Amazonas State University (AEUl) Laboratory in Manaus City, in the context of eradicating human trafficking, including human organs.

The Brazilian Federal Police said that a package containing preserved human organs was sent from Brazil to Singapore. The organs were allegedly ordered by an Indonesian fashion designer.
