HATTIAN BALA: (Azadi Times) In a remarkable turn of events, the life of Syeda Laila Batul, a third-grade student studying at Red Foundation School in Chanari, has taken an unexpected twist as she transitioned from a girl to a boy.
Nine-year-old Syeda Laila Batul, the daughter of Syed Intizar Hussain Shah, a resident of Bandi Syedan village adjacent to Chinari in the Jhelum Valley district of Azad Kashmir, astonished everyone when she suddenly changed her gender and embraced being a boy.
Speaking to journalists, the child, now identifying as a boy, expressed happiness about the change, stating, “Before, I was a girl. I had long hair. It has been a few days since I became a boy, and I have also cut my hair. I am very happy to be a boy now.”
Syed Intizar Hussain Shah, the child’s father, informed reporters about the sequence of events leading to the transformation. He stated, “Earlier, my nine-year-old daughter complained of a stomach ache, so we got her checked up in Chinari. We then took her to Muzaffarabad, but even there, no one could diagnose her illness. Subsequently, we took her to Pindi. By the grace of Allah, my daughter has now become a boy.”
The child, now a boy, has not yet been named. Shah mentioned, “Since the daughter has transformed into a son, he has not been sent to school. After the annual exams, we will enroll him in a boys’ school. He still has to undergo an operation, after which his education will continue.”
According to the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) records and Form B, Laila Batul’s date of birth is 15th January 2015. After completing the necessary procedures, the child will be given a new name and registered in Form B.
The news of a girl transitioning into a boy has spread rapidly throughout the entire Jhelum Valley, leaving everyone awestruck by the power of God.
