RETAIL magnate Tang Wee Sung, who was convicted of trying to buy a kidney in Singapore's first organ trading case last year, received a new organ at the National University Hospital.

The Straits Times believes that the kidney came from former triad leader Tan Chor Jin, who gunned down a nightclub owner in 2006. The gangster dubbed the 'One-Eyed Dragon' was hanged at Changi Prison yesterday morning.

His mistress confirmed that his organs were donated.
