Peshawar: The transvestite community here on Wednesday presented their own account of the May 24 incident in which police arrested a man and a transgender person for allegedly contracting marriage.

The transvestite community asked authorities to inquire into the incident.

Addressing a press conference at the Peshawar Press Club, President She-male Foundation Pakistan Almas Bobby said reports that Malik Iqbal and Rani had married were baseless. Bobby said the police had implicated Iqbal and Rani in a false case.
