A CROSS-DRESSER who brought traffic to a standstill was arrested as he drove his car through Manama wearing women's clothes.
The man, identified only as a Gulf national, caused a commotion when a crowd of men gathered around his car, a Public Prosecution spokesman said yesterday
A police patrol approached the car because it was blocking the entrance to a side road and initially thought the driver was a woman.
Officers arrested him when they realised it was a man wearing makeup, a dress and a wig.
"When police went to find out what was happening, they saw a group of men surrounding a car with the defendant inside it," said the spokesman.
"Apparently, he was wearing make-up with red lipstick, a wig and a woman's dress."
He has now been charged with committing an immoral act and will remain in custody until his case goes to court.
