INDORE: Two unidentified eunuchs allegedly abducted and chopped off the genitals of a man who had posed as a eunuch and collected alms from train passengers here, a police official said today.

"The 27-year-old victim told us that he was abducted near the railway station and taken to a square close to MR 10 road by two eunuchs on May 7," Hiranagar police station inspector Shashikant Chourasia told PTI.

According to the police, the victim said that after regaining his senses yesterday, he found himself bleeding profusely. He figured that his genitals had been chopped off, with a tube inserted into his body to enable him to urinate.

In his submission, the victim admitted that he had posed like a eunuch and collected alms from train passengers for a long time.

The acquaintances of the man said that he wanted to become a eunuch, police said.

Chourasia said that it cannot be concluded that real eunuchs abducted the man and chopped off his genitals since he had been depriving them of their livelihood.

Prime facie, it appeared like the man was castrated by a surgeon and so the police does not believe his statement that he was abducted as well as kept unconscious for five days, he said.

A case has been registered against two unidentified eunuchs, police said.

The official added that the case is being probed from different angles.
