Transsexual drug dealer spared the cane in Singapore
`A court has spared a Thai transsexual drug dealer from caning because Singaporean law does not allow women to be sentenced to that punishment, a newspaper reported Friday.
Thai prostitute Mongkon Pusuwan, who underwent a sex change from male to female a decade ago, was instead sentenced on Wednesday to six years in jail after a medical report concluded that she was a woman, the Straits Times reported.’
Caning undoubtably hurts like a motherfucker. But is it worth exchanging for six years in jail?
