JERUSALEM � Israel has admitted that in the 1990s, its forensic
pathologists harvested organs from dead bodies, including
Palestinians, without permission of their families.
The issue emerged with publication of an interview with the then-head
of Israel's Abu Kabir forensic institute, Dr. Jehuda Hiss. The
interview was conducted in 2000 by an American academic, who released
it because of a huge controversy last summer over an allegation by a
Swedish newspaper that Israel was killing Palestinians in order to
harvest their organs. Israel hotly denied the charge.
Parts of the interview were broadcast on Israel's Channel 2 TV over
the weekend. In it, Hiss said, "We started to harvest corneas ...
Whatever was done was highly informal. No permission was asked from
the family."
The Channel 2 report said that in the 1990s, forensic specialists at
Abu Kabir harvested skin, corneas, heart valves and bones from the
bodies of Israeli soldiers, Israeli citizens, Palestinians and foreign
workers, often without permission from relatives.
