Two Saudi patients involved in an organ trafficking case are no longer in custody, the Saudi Arabian embassy in Cairo confirmed on Wednesday. In a statement picked up by the Saudi Gazette, the embassy noted that Jaiz Al Shammari died from complications caused by his kidney transplant, while the second patient Abdullah Al-Shabrami was released on bail and transferred to the ICU at a state-owned hospital at his own expense. Saudi authorities are working hard to lift a travel ban authorities had imposed on Al-Shabrami pending investigations, according to the newspaper.
