Jailed as the guy had a sex change when he was sixteen. The "authorities" claim that he is still a woman & that such a marrige is illegal... These 2 have harmed no one, they care for each other & the way they have been jailed is inhuman. Can't someone find out & do something to help them?

There's nothing anyone can do to change a country's laws - if the authorities say the marriage is illegal, cruel as it may seem, then that's how it must be. For example, look at the death sentences being handed down in Bali and other places for drug-related crimes which, in another country, would merit a short prison term!

Anyone with concerns ought to ask Amnesty International to step in. I feel they already know about this but check with them.
