Injustice in Zambia: Transgender Woman Faces 15 Years For 'Deceiving' Man<\/b><\/p>\n

A transgender woman<\/a> in Zambia reportedly faces 15 years in prison for the crime of sodomy after a man<\/a> she met claimed he was “deceived” by her, reported the Washington Blade.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

A newspaper in that African country, The <\/a>Zambia Daily Mail<\/a>, <\/em>misgendered the trans<\/a> woman<\/a>, deadenamed her and referred to her as a “fake woman<\/a>” in its headline on October 31, reporting that Magistrate Derrick Mate Chingumbe convicted the trans<\/a> woman<\/a> in a court in the country’s Mongu District.<\/p>\n

The newspaper identified the trans<\/a> woman<\/a> as a 27-year-old hairdresser.<\/p>\n

The plaintiff was a 19-year-old taxi driver, who told the court that he met her at a local bar in September. He told the court that the defendant was dressed as a woman<\/a> when they first met, according to the newspaper. The cabbie testified that the trans<\/a> woman<\/a> asked him to turn off the lights before they had anal sex<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Judge Chingumbe granted the trans<\/a> woman<\/a> bail and said she could appeal the verdict to the Zambian High Court, after announcing her conviction.<\/p>\n

\n

“I have concluded that Bril [the last name of the trans woman] did actually permit the taxi driver to have carnal knowledge of him. In fact, he was made to believe that he was actually going to sleep with a woman<\/a> and a woman<\/a> only because of the way he [the trans woman] was dressed, and he [the trans woman] had long hair.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Washington Blade<\/em> asked U.S. State Department spokesperson John Kirby on Wednesday during his daily press briefing about the trans<\/a> woman<\/a>’s conviction. He had not seen the report, Kirby said.<\/p>\n

 “If it’s true, it would be deeply concerning to the United States,” he said. <\/p>\n

The Zambian government was asked by the Blade for comment but at press time had not yet responded. <\/p>\n
