Man who had sex-change to marry boyfriend now spurned

Source: Times of India, Deccan Herald
SILIGURI, India -- It's a bizarre story that will probably become the stuff of jokes, but more significantly becomes yet another in an unfortunate series showing the sometimes tragic effect of societal repression of LGBT expression.

A resident of Rangapani, India near Siliguri filed a police complaint against another local man with whom he said he'd had a gay relationship.

Dipu Ghosh told police that he was encouraged by his partner, Ajit Mondal, to undergo for a sex change.

Ghosh said in his complaint that Mondal had promised to marry him after the sex change operation.

But three months after starting the sex-change process -- too late, according to Times of India, to return to his male form -- Ghosh told police that he found to his dismay that his partner showed no interest in him any more.

Police who are now looking for Mondal, officer-in-charge of New Jalpaiguri Police outpost, Pankaj Thapa said on Thursday.

Mondal was nowhere to be found, according to Times of India, but parents claimed to have no knowledge of their son's homosexuality according to the police spokesman. They say, it is a plot against their innocent 23-year-old son.

Dipu came in contact with Ajit two years ago and they developed a homosexual relation. Later, with the help of local eunuch community, Dipu went to Mumbai and started working as a bar-girl. He now earns a modest amount.

"Money is not a problem for me. I am ready to give Ajit everything, a beautiful life.... (I'll) fulfill all his dreams. But he has no right to insult my love," he told a local television channel.
