<p>WARSAW, Poland — Poland’s Foreign Ministry said Thursday that authorities in Mexico are investigating the death of a young Pole and the hospitalization of another, which Polish media have linked with alleged organ harvesting. </p>
<p>Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro said he has ordered a separate investigation into what he called the “homicide and attempted homicide" of the two young Poles in Mexico.</p>
<p>The Foreign Ministry said in a statement that Poland’s embassy in Mexico is in contact with local investigators and with the men’s local employer, and appealed to all to refrain from speculating about what had happened. </p>
<p>An autopsy is to be performed on the dead man. </p>
<p>Poland’s Onet.pl portal claimed that the men, aged around 20, had internal organs removed after they arrived in Mexico earlier this month for work arranged by someone in Poland. </p>
<p>Onet.pl said one of the men died after he had a kidney and other organs removed, while the other is in hospital in a coma. </p>
<p>The foreign ministry said the condition of the man in hospital is improving.</p>
<p>A third Pole managed to return to Poland, according to Onet.pl. </p>
