Two constables of Hastings police station saw something unusual around 5.30 pm on March 18. At a distance, they spotted someone running down the pavement of St George's Gate Road and suddenly fall down. The duo rushed to the spot. They found a man — dressed as a woman — with a slashed abdomen, profusely bleeding.

The constables took the man, later identified as Ronald D'Silva, to SSKM Hospital, where the 32-year-old succumbed to his injuries.

"Ronald was a cross-dresser and a regular in the city's party circuit," said an officer of Hastings police station, adding that the man was found in tight jeans, a floral top and women's innerwear.
