Madrid - Transsexual inmates in Spain soon will be able to serve their sentences in facilities for men or women according to their "psycho-social identity", and not according to their original gender, reported the El Pais newspaper on Sunday.

According to the centre-left daily, a directive is about to be published concerning the incarceration of individuals who have undergone a sex change.
