Agra: A transgender person in Agra has accused her former boyfriend of sexually assaulting her on the pretext of marriage, pressuring her to undergo gender-affirming surgery and allegedly cheating her of Rs 4 lakh and a Bullet motorcycle.
The complainant, identified as Suraj Verma alias Ayesha, a resident of Shastripuram under the Sikandra police station area, has lodged a complaint against Trivendra Singh, a resident of Lucknowpur in the same police jurisdiction. Police have registered a case on the basis of her complaint and initiated an investigation.
According to the complaint, the two met around two years ago and gradually developed a relationship. The accused allegedly promised to marry her and keep her as his wife, but sexually assaulted her at different hotels.
The complainant further alleged that Singh pressured her to undergo gender-affirming surgery as a condition for marriage. She claimed that she suffered considerable physical and financial hardship following the operation.
Accused allegedly withdrew after surgery
According to Ayesha, the accused began distancing himself after the surgery. She subsequently discovered that he was already married.
When she demanded the return of Rs 4 lakh and her Bullet motorcycle, the accused and his wife, identified as Kiran, allegedly attacked her. She also claimed that Singh used to take away the money she earned through traditional ceremonial performances.
After leaving Agra, Ayesha moved to Haidergarh in Barabanki district, where she began living with her guru, Chandni Kinnar, near the Sheetla Mata temple.
With her guru’s assistance, she approached the police to seek action against the accused. After initially receiving no relief, she also approached the Police Commissioner.
Police officials said a case had been registered on the basis of her complaint and an investigation was underway. The allegations are yet to be independently established.
