Nigerian Arrested for Running Illegal Blood Bank

Lagos State police have arrested Paul Achegbulu for allegedly operating an illegal blood bank in the state, paying donors small sums before selling their blood on at profit. Police say they have started a wider investigation, amid fears that the blood, which was not screened before being sent to a local hospital, could have been carrying infections.
