Transsexual prisoner wins move to women's jail...

A transsexual serving life for manslaughter and attempted rape committed while she was a man is to be moved to a women's jail after the high court ruled that holding her in a male prison was a violation of her human rights.

The 27-year-old prisoner, who can be identified only as A, was described by her lawyer as "a woman trapped inside a man's body". She is serving an automatic "two strikes" life sentence after being convicted of the manslaughter of her male partner in 2001, and of the attempted rape of a female stranger five days after her release from her five-year manslaughter sentence.
