Asma Bibi Divorces Wife

On July 14, a high court bench ordered to form a medical board to test a person who is known to be a woman. She is named Asma Bibi but claims to have changed her gender to marry another girl but eventually divorces her wife after she was asked for some medical tests.

Reportedly, a girl impersonating as a boy married another girl in Rawalpindi. Asma Bibi married her friend Neha Ali by modifying her name in the CNIC. She changed her name from Asma Bibi to Ali Akash and got married in the court. Both the girls are residents of Taxila.

Moreover, on the issue of girl-to-girl marriage, the father of the bride girl, Neha, later filed a petition in the High Court Rawalpindi bench after he found out the reality. Through Advocate Amjad Janjua he wanted to declare the marriage illegal and unlawful. Subsequent to this, the Lahore High Court Rawalpindi Bench ordered Asma to undergo medical treatment to prove her gender.
