An Indonesian domestic worker has claimed her kidney was stolen without her knowledge while she worked in Doha, Qatar , four years ago.

Sri Rabitah, 25, told the Indonesian press that she only realised what had happened earlier when she returned to her home island of Lombok and went to hospital complaining of constant back pain.

Doctors told the young mother that one of her kidneys was missing.

Muhammad Iqbal, a foreign ministry official, said her case was a “clear indication” of organ trafficking and called for an urgent investigation.

Sri’s ordeal began in 2014 when, like millions of Indonesian women, she applied through an agency to move abroad as a domestic worker.

She thought she was being sent to work for a family in Abu Dhabi , UAE, but ended up in Doha , working for Palestinian clients.

Her employers allegedly told her to go for a medical check-up at a hospital, during which she was placed under anaesthesia with no explanation.
