Although Alterina Hofan says he is a man, authorities think otherwise and have detained him at Pondok Bambu Women's Penitentiary for allegedly falsifying his personal data.
Alter, as the 32-year-old is also known, said he was born a boy but because his male genitalia did not develop properly when he was a baby, his mother decided to registered him as female, even dressing and treating him as a girl. However, he says he grew up thinking he was a boy.
