A couple of respected and qualified Westerners published an investigative report that lent some credibility to the rumor. In an interesting twist, another Western journalist wrote a piece that refuted the work of David Kilgour and David Matas. It was later pointed out that the key information source for the rebuttal was an organization that is associated with the Chinese government.
