Music is so desperate to return to the home


Bosnian Muslim Safet Music (R), 36, sits 18 July 2007 in the ruins of his home in the western Bosnian town of Novi Grad. Music is so desperate to return to the home he fled at the start of Bosnia's 1992-1995 war that he is willing to fund its reconstruction by selling one of his kidneys. The sale of human organs is illegal in Bosnia, but some people like Music have been putting ads in local newspapers offering their body parts for sale in a bid to break out of poverty. The authorities have issued warnings against such moves, notably after reports that some locals were travelling to certain Asian countries to have their kidneys removed in return for cash
