FollowBengaluru: Former Bigg Boss Kannada contestant, stage dancer and Bengaluru’s first drag queen Adam Pasha is reportedly creating a ruckus at the Narcotics Control Bureau jail.
According to sources the NCB sleuths had lodged Adam in the cell dedicated to sexual minorities after he was arrested.
However, Adam asked the NCB sleuths to shift him to a women’s cell. It is reported that Adam told the officers that he dresses like women but has not had a gender change and would want to be in the women’s cell as he identifies himself as a drag queen.
Confused with Adam’s sexuality and his demands the NCB sleuths have not lodged Adam at the quarantine cell in the jail.
