It was learnt that the former number three man in the country and his wife have been charged for conspiracy to arrange the travel of the child for the purpose of organ harvest.
The Independent of UK reported that the arrests were confirmed by the Metropolitan Police after an investigation by its Special Crime team.
The couple is said to be in custody and will appear before an Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court later Thursday.
