Dateline has a special investigation into disturbing claims over the use of live donors in the countrys transplant trade.
10,000 organs are transplanted in China every year, yet there are only a tiny number of people on the official donor register.
Around the world more than two million people desperately need a transplant. Waiting lists can be years long. So they travel here to pay to receive organs straight away.
But where are the organs coming from?
Investigators believe Chinese authorities are handpicking dissidents to be killed for their organs. Among their key targets - the Falun Gong. Falun Gong is a quasi-religious organization focusing on self-cultivation, using meditation and tai-chi-like exercises. It began in 1992. The practice exploded in popularity but is banned by the Chinese Government.
For years China has been accused of killing and stealing the organs of political prisoners to supply their organ transplant system. This film is based on years of investigation led by Nobel Peace Prize nominees David Matas and David Kilgour into organ harvesting claims in China.
