Tamil Nadu : Forced Prostitution In Exchange for Sexual Reassignment Surgery(SRS)

I published an article on Friday, March 13, 2009 Sex-change for Free : Tamil Nadu India . I was very impressed that a State in India, Tamil Nadu, in a country with a long history of suffering transgender people to the lowest station of society was doing what appeared to be a 180 Degree turn about by offering Sex-changes for free. Sexual reassignment Surgery(SRS) to transgender people is freedom but a very costly one that marginalized people worldwide could never afford, without help.

Ever since that article was published planetransgender had hundreds of inquiries about 'Tamil Sex' and not one inquiry about the State of Tamil Nadu or how to arrange the SRS operation.

The article below found on Chennai Online, India is exposing what amounts to sexual slavery benefiting from what by first blush would appear to be a wonderful selfless act by the state of Tamil Nadu, India. Who is the grim reaper? It is doubtful the transgender people who were just arrested for trafficking had the where with all to organize and carry out such an undertaking.

Is the state of Tamil Nadu India sponsoring and benefiting from sexual slavery of the very most vulnerable people in it's citizenry?

Found on Chennai Online,

"Chennai, Apr 15 Five transgenders wanted in connection with an inter-state human trafficking case surrendered before a city court here today, taking the number of arrested and surrendered transgenders in the case to 11."

"CB-CID ADGP Archana Ramasundaram told PTI that the five persons, wanted in connection with the case relating to conducting transgender surgery on a teenager and forcing him into prostitution, surrendered before a Magistrate court and were remanded to 15 days judical custody."
