Pakistan arrests 10 for flogging transgender woman
ISLAMABAD — Pakistani police arrested 10 alleged members of a criminal gang on Monday accused of flogging a transgender woman and posting a video of the abuse on social media, officials said.
The arrests were made in the eastern city of Sialkot after a video of the flogging was shared thousands of times on social media, said police official Iqbal Sindhu.
The video shows the gang leader pinning the woman face down on a bed with his foot and beating her with what appears to be a leather belt.
