You should actually call him Dr.Robinhood instead of Dr.Horror!
He robbed only one kidnet from those rich with two kidneys, where as one is sufficient. And saved the lives of about 360 people who otherwise would have died!
He is a sort of Medical equivalent of Robinhood!
How can people be stinkingly rich with two kidneys? where as only one is sufficient?
There are millions dying because they dont have even one kidney. How can some have two kidneys?
Dr.Robinhood thought of bringing justice and he did.
In the court of a different perpective, he would be awarded Bharat Ratna!

Might be he has done kidney trading. What right has the media to call him Dr Horror. Look at the positive part of the story. There were many lives saved by this kidney transplants. Organ trade should be legalized and streamlined. People should come forward to donate organs for the people in need. Even though many people want to donate kidneys for exchange of money our government has no proper law for it. If a donor and receiver are willing for whatever monetory or health benefits each one of them gets why should the government and legal system interfere?

dude...you cant save one life at the cost of another :) and not to mention...that certain pains are best to be felt to understand it :)
How much you want for your kidney? Will you be willing to donate one today? How about a reciprocation of Rs. 50,000? Forget a kidney, will you even donate your little pinky finger? Simply, tell us how would you feel if someone removes your pinky finger without telling you?
Robinhood stole money, not body organs. And even Robinhood-ness is not legal my friend. No one has a right to dictate who gets what and who shoulld not have what - except for the legal system and the law.

I HAVE NO FAITH IN THE LEGAL SYSTEM MR SAMEER BHAGAWAT. SO MANY HUSBANDS ARE FACING FALSE CASES FILED BY THEIR WIVES IN OUR COUNTRY. AND YOU STILL TRUST IN THE LEGAL SYSTEM?

To be honest, India's legal system is not very promising, nor very symmetrical. It does have strange laws, many times favoring one class or caste or religion over another. And I can feel your dislike and frustration regarding the legal system.
But, by breaking the system, or not obiding the laws what are we doing? Is that a form of protest? No, I think it simply screws up whatever little that we have as a "system", and only creates more chaos and anarchy. See, the divorce laws that you are taking about might be a painful thing in your opinion, but how can we compare black-market organ trading (which can cause fatal impacts), and unjust divorce laws? Yeah, I agree, sometimes the wives have taken advantages of their husbands because of our female-centric laws, but how does that make it "okay" to remove someone's kidneys?
