The 33-year-old fled to Britain in 2002 claiming she was being persecuted in her Muslim homeland.
She has now won the right to become a UK resident - and taxpayers' cash will fund her gender-reassignment programme. Identified only as G.O, she was born female but will get a prosthetic penis. Her breasts have been removed and she told friends she wants the name Dennis.
