IN BENGALURU, 5 TRANSGENDER PEOPLE ALLEGEDLY CHOPPED OFF 18-YEAR-OLD BOY’S PRIVATE PART TO CONVERT HIM INTO GIRL AND FORCED HIM INTO PROSTITUTION.

In a shocking incident in Bengaluru, a young boy was allegedly castrated by five transgender individuals who then forced him into prostitution. The victim, an 18-year-old boy, was reportedly taken against his will and subjected to this horrific act.

The Beginning of the Nightmare

Three years ago, the victim was working at a tea stall where he became familiar with five transgender people—Chitra, Ashwini, Kajal, Preethi, and Mugila. They used to visit the tea stall regularly and eventually befriended him. However, their intentions were far from innocent.

Forced Into Begging

According to the victim’s statement to the police, the five transgender individuals threatened his family and took him to a house on Tannery Road. Once there, they forced him into begging. For three years, he was under their control, unable to escape the life they imposed on him.

The Horrific Castration

On July 12, the situation took an even darker turn. The five transgender individuals cornered the boy after consuming alcohol and drugs. They discussed how he could earn more money if he were a girl instead of a boy. They then allegedly injected him with a substance that made him unconscious. When he woke up, he discovered that he had been castrated.

Further Exploitation

After the castration, the boy was forced into begging and prostitution. The group even performed a ritual on August 3 to mark this cruel act. On August 13, the victim managed to escape and immediately filed a complaint with the police.

Legal Action and Investigation

The Pulakeshinagar police have registered a case against the five suspects under multiple charges, including 118(2) grievous hurt, 127(4) wrongful confinement, 140(4) abduction, 3(5) criminal act done by several persons, 351(2) criminal intimidation, and 351(3) treating to cause death or grievous hurt.. However, the suspects are currently absconding, and the police have launched a manhunt to find them.

Conflicting Claims

During the investigation, a video surfaced showing the victim undergoing the castration procedure, which allegedly suggests that he might have consented to it. This has led the police to consider the possibility that the complaint could be part of a conspiracy by a rival group. However, these claims are still under investigation, and the police have not yet confirmed their validity.

This tragic incident highlights the extreme cruelty and exploitation some people face. The authorities are working to bring the perpetrators to justice and to determine the full truth behind this horrific case. The victim, who has suffered unimaginable trauma, is now receiving medical attention and support.
