A 20-year-old man in Uttar Pradesh, India, claims he was tricked into undergoing a sex change operation as part of a plot to seize his family’s land.
According to Daily Mail, Mujahid alleges that Omprakash, the accused, misled him into believing he had a medical issue and convinced him to undergo surgery at Muzaffarnagar Medical College.
After the operation, Mujahid discovered that his genitals had been removed, and Omprakash allegedly threatened to harm his family and take control of their land unless he complied with his demands.
Following the surgery, Mujahid woke up to find that surgeons had removed his genitals, NDTV reported.
‘When I regained consciousness, I was told that I had been changed from a boy to a girl,’ Mujahid recounted.
The afflicted man alleged that the incident was the culmination of a two-year campaign of threats and harassment by Omprakash, but the extent of their relationship is still unknown.
Omprakash allegedly then told Mujahid that he would now have to live with him, as he would be ostracised by friends and family.
He also allegedly threatened to shoot Mujahid’s father and seize his share of the family land.
‘He said, ‘I changed you from a man to a woman and now you have to live with me. I have prepared a lawyer and prepared a court marriage for you. Now I will shoot your father and the land of your share will be named after me and then I will sell it and go to Lucknow’,’ Mujahid recalled.
But instead of being cast out by his local community, workers from a local farmer’s union set up a protest at the medical college, calling for immediate legal and criminal action against Omprakash and the involved doctors.
Local cops have since arrested Omprakash, and are said to be investigating the involved doctors.
Mujahid’s family are also suing, claiming that his life has been severely affected by the horrific incident.
