Ekweremadu, a lawyer and former deputy president of the Nigerian Senate, and Beatrice, an accountant, appeared at the Old Bailey on Friday for a bail hearing.

The Common Sergeant of London, Judge Richard Marks, said: “The position is that I have granted bail to Beatrice subject to some fairly stringent conditions but I have refused bail to Ike.”

Prosecutor Tim Probert-Wood said previously that the case involved “exploitation and the harvesting of an organ.”

Ekweremadu and his wife, Beatrice were arrested in the UK weeks ago for plotting to traffic a homeless man into the UK to harvest a kidney for their daughter.

Mrs Ekweremadu, 55, together with her husband, Ike Ekweremadu, 60, allegedly trafficked the 21-year-old to London from the streets of Lagos in order to harvest his organ.
