The Lahore High Court (LHC) has issued non-bailable arrest warrants for a couple after a medical examination found the husband to be a woman.
Lahore, May 10 : The Lahore High Court (LHC) has issued non-bailable arrest warrants for a couple after a medical examination found the 'husband' to be a woman.
The court issued the warrant after a five-man medical board, headed by Services Hospital Medical Superintendent Dr Ejaz Bhatti, told the court that petitioner Shumail Raj was a woman.
Raj had filed the petition in the court of Justice Khwaja Muhammad Sharif, alleging that 'he' and Shahzina Tariq had contracted marriage with free will, but police and Ms Tariq's relatives had been harassing 'him'.
After a medical report, the court directed Faisalabad police to arrest the 'couple' and produce them on the next of hearing on May 16.
The judge also issued a notice to the petitioner as to why not 'he' be convicted under Section 193 of the Pakistan Penal Code for submitting a false affidavit to the court.
According to Faisalabad Police officials Raj and Ms Tariq were cousins, and they confirmed that physical changes in Raj took place 15 or 16 years ago.
