India court gives police protection to US transgender man

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-34332922

BBC/23 September 2015
From the section India

"An Indian court has given police protection to a transgender man from the US.

Shivy, 18, who prefers to be identified by his first name, is an Indian citizen but has been living in the US since the age of three.

He has alleged that his parents tricked him into coming to India on holiday and then took away his passport and green card.

He says that they then tried to forcibly marry him off to a man.

His parents have refused to comment on the allegations."

Makes me feel sick just thinking about it. And I wonder how many women suffer the same problem and don't make it into the news.
