Helen of Troy meet Chahat from Kohat. In a development that appears straight out of a tragicomedy, a member of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa cabinet has ordered the expulsion of the transgender dancer from the district for being a ‘threat to law and order’.

In a statement issued earlier this week, the K-P chief minister’s science adviser Ziaullah Bangash also directed the district administration and police to take legal action against Chahat. The orders were issued after the dancer was termed responsible for the death of five persons during a wedding function.

The incident is said to have involved two parties, both of which took a liking to and sought the attention of Chahat. Reportedly, one of the parties became enraged seeing Chahat spend too much time with the other. An exchange of fire subsequently erupted, that left five dead and three others injured.
