But AK grew suspicious of his new wife soon after tying the knot on April 12, since she avoided intimacy by telling him she was on her period or feeling unwell, according to the South China Morning Post.
AK said Adinda refused to speak to his family and continued wearing her niqab at home, so he tracked down her former address 12 days after their wedding – and was surprised to find her parents alive and well there.
Adinda’s parents revealed that AK’s wife was actually a man, identified as ESH, who started cross-dressing in 2020.
They also said they didn’t know that their son was in a relationship, let alone married.
The police said that Adinda behaved like a woman and had a female-sounding voice, adding: ‘If you look at their wedding photos, Adinda looks exactly like a real woman.
‘He also has a gentle voice and tone, so there was no suspicion at all about him being a woman.’
ESH has now been arrested by the police and told them he intended to marry AK to steal his family’s assets, according to local media reports.
He is facing fraud charges that could land him behind bars for up to four years.
Police suggested that ESH enjoyed pretending to be a woman while dating men. It was also revealed that the alleged fraudster had previously dated women.
The investigation is ongoing.
