[quote=LIONPOWER,229911]The regulation stipulates that human organ transplants should respect the principle of voluntary and free donation and makes it a crime to harvest organs without the owner's permission or against his will. People taking organs from anyone under the age of 18 will also face prosecution and can be convicted of murder or intentional assault, according to an official with the Health Ministry interpreting the regulation to the media on Friday. Human organ transplants are defined as the process of taking a human organ or part of a human organ -- such as the heart, lung, liver, kidney and pancreas -- from a donor and transplanting it into a patient's body to replace their sick or damaged organ. The regulation does not apply to transplants of human tissue, such as cells, cornea and marrow.[/quote]
