Kajal

Kajal’s throat was cut by her partner, a 26 year old man named Saurav. After killing her he surrendered to the police.

PATNA: A 26-year-old man walked into Alamganj police station in blood stained clothes on Friday midnight and claimed he had murdered his transgender partner with whom he had physical relationship for over six years.

The man, Saurav Suman, then guided the police to his medical shop at Gai Ghat from where the body of the transgender, Kajal (40), was recovered around 2am. The body was lying in a pool of blood when the police reached the spot.

SHO of Alamganj police station Om Prakash said Saurav has confessed to killing Kajal. “It seems the murder was fallout of a property dispute between Saurav and Kajal. The latter had made Saurav nominee while buying a plot of land,” he added. The SHO said Saurav told police that he slit Kajal’s throat with a surgical blade inside his shop. Kajal was living in a rented house at Gud Ki Mandi while Saurav is a resident of Kazibagh.
