Pakistan Sex Change

A court on Monday jailed Pakistan's first publicly acknowledged same-sex couple for three years for perjury _ prompting the defendants to ask the president for help. The case of Shumail Raj, who was born female but had two operations to remove her breasts and uterus 16 years ago, and Shahzina Tariq has made waves by raising issues of homosexuality and transsexuality that are taboo in the conservative Muslim society.
