Two days after a medical team raided Sukh Sewa Multi-Specialty Hospital in Kharar and found an illegal kidney transplant underway, the district administration today sealed the hospital on the orders of the DC.

Investigations had suggested that kidney was being sold illegally. Donors were allegedly roped in from Nepal and operated without mandatory government approvals. The police said two persons, identified as Mahendra Kumar Mansukhbhai Pattha of Gujarat and Rakesh Kumar of Rajasthan had been arrested.

The hospital owner, Dr Manpreet Kaur, was at large, said police officials.

Two patients found at the hospital on Monday were later shifted to the PGI.
