"A transgender prostitute has been arrested in Sydney after allegedly infecting a man with HIV, police say.

The 38-year-old, who police said was a man but identified as a woman, was arrested at a Surry Hills hotel this week after allegedly infecting a client in Western Australia with the virus last year.

West Australian detectives will seek to extradite her to Perth when she appears in Central Local Court on Thursday on a grievous bodily harm charge.

But the woman's arrest in Sydney has now sparked an investigation by the NSW Sex Crimes Squad."
