Half-naked visuals of transgender in Kerala go viral; cop suspended

Alappuzha, March 28

In a shocker from Kerala, a purported video clip of a half-naked transgender inside a police station here has gone viral on the internet, following which a woman police official has been suspended, pending inquiry.

Police had ‘removed’ the transgender woman from a public place and brought her to the Alappuzha south police station on March 22 following a complaint of “public nuisance”.

The woman, said to be inebriated, allegedly started undressing before the officers after unruly behaviour.

A woman police official recorded the incident as the transgender began ‘removing’ her clothes.

However, the video clipping has gone viral, causing embarrassment to the police.

District police chief S Surendran told PTI that an inquiry was on. PTI
