The Ukrainian Interior Ministry appealed to the Azerbaijani law enforcement agencies with a request for joint investigation the information on illegal transplantation of internal organs, Azerbaijani General Prosecutor Zakir Garalov said.
"We are ready to assist the Ukrainian colleagues in the investigation of this fact under the bilateral agreement on legal aid," Garalov said.
Earlier, mass media published information about health facilities in Azerbaijan, which allegedly carry out "black transplantation" of human organs in cooperation with the citizens of Ukraine and Israel. The Azerbaijani General Prosecutor's Office tasked its international department to contact with the relevant structures of the Ukrainian General Prosecutor's Office to clarify the issue.
"If our doctors have committed such a crime, they will be certainly brought to justice," he added.
