The Dec. 31 arrest of two people who allegedly lured poor people into selling their kidneys resulted in the arrest Saturday of the man who allegedly created and provided false documents for the kidney transplants, the police official said.
 
Agarwal said the suspects charged people seeking a kidney transplant between $9,000 and $18,000 for an organ.
