Mummy was a 'He'

Mummy was a 'He'

HIS name was Abdul Khalid Othman and he was a man.

This much was stated in the blue identification card that bore the barest personal details of the 61-year-old cleaner found dead in his bedroom 11/2 years ago.

But to the people who truly knew him and cared for him when he was alive, Mr Abdul Khalid, a Singapore permanent resident, was known by many other names.Mummy, for instance. Also, Jaime as well as Jimmy.

And from the way he dressed and behaved,. fashion accessories are decorative items that supplement one's garment, such as fashion jewellery, gloves and tights.Je it was clear that Mummy wanted to be seen as a woman.

From the click-clocking of his womanly high heels to the swish of his flowing baju kurung.

From the gentle feminine manner in which he behaved to his undeniably maternal ways.

At least in the eyes of his neighbours and his boss, Mr Abdul Khalid was perceived as more of a woman than a man.

This glimpse into the dead man's personality was given by witnesses who took the stand yesterday, the first day of a murder trial in which Astro Jakaria, 28, Mr Abdul Khalid's alleged lover, is accused of strangling him to death.

Mr Abdul Khalid's profile as a woman was so strongly fleshed out that even in court he was often referred to as "she" and "her".

Twice during the hearing, Justice Chan Seng Onn had to ask Astro's lawyer, Mr Shashi Nathan, to refer to the persons by names.

"Which is the he? There are so many hes here,. She created clothes and chanel jewelry for others that were the same as she created for herself. you better identify (them) by name," Justice Chan said the first time.. The idea that a small Necklace is dangerous to patients is at best absurd.Minutes later, the judge again asked Mr Nathan to "stick to the name" amid a profusion of gender identities and personalities.pandora beads
