Gorakhpur (UP), October 24 (IANS) In a bizarre incident, a “dholak” player from Uruwa in Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur allegedly persuaded a Gola dancer to undergo sex reassignment surgery in order to perform as a dancer.
After being his dance partner for some time, the “dholak” player escaped with the money he had earned from his performances.
In response to the victim’s written report, the police registered proceedings against the “Dholak” player under various sections, including theft and under the SC / ST Act.
A search for the “Dholak” player has been initiated, the police said.
According to the report, the victim was a DJ dancer.
In June 2020 the victim met the “Dholak” player Mohammad Mumtaz and was lured to travel with him to Delhi.
In Delhi, Mumtaz is said to have mixed some sedatives into the victim’s food, which made the dancer weak.
Mumtaz then took him to a hospital where, after regaining consciousness, the victim found that his gender had been changed to a woman.
Mumtaz then made him dance in Delhi.
When they got to Gorakhpur, the victim learned that Mumtaz was married and had children.
A few days later, Mumtaz ran away with his wife and children. He is said to have stolen 10 lakh rupees and jewelry worth 4 lakh rupees earned through the victim’s dance performances.
Dharmendra Kumar, officer of Gola Station House, told the media: “Based on the complaint, we recorded one case under 18 sections. An investigation is ongoing. “
