Maharani Women's College hostel pervert wore his wife's undergarments too

Bengaluru: While the High Grounds police are questioning Abu Taleem, a cross-dresser who was arrested for sneaking into Maharani's College Hostel and stealing women's underwear, his brother told Deccan Chronicle that Abu's acts were no different at home in Bihar.

His brother Salman (name changed) said that Abu's wife had on many occasions caught him wearing her underwear and flaunting himself before the mirror. Though she objected, Abu refused to change.

“This led to frequent fights between Abu and his wife. Later, he also started beating her up,” he said. Salman, who sells race books at the Bangalore Turf Club, said he did not know Abu was jumping over the wall to get into Maharani's College Hostel, as he stays in a different place.

Salman said Abu started behaving abnormally two years into his marriage. “He has two children, who are six and four years old. I never imagined that he would take his abnormal behaviour to such extreme levels,” Salman said.

“Back in Bihar, Abu used to walk out of the house in the night, roam the streets and return later in the night. No one knew where he went and what he did. But we never heard any complaints of his peeping into someone else's house or walking around wearing women's clothes," he said.
