(Guyana Graphic January 16, 1968)
A young man, Compton Bowen of Bagotsville West Bank Demerara, who was found wearing a mini skirt on Sunday was yesterday ordered to be sent to the Georgetown Hospital for psychiatric treatment.
The order was made by Magistrate Aubrey Bishop when Bowen pleaded guilty to a charge of wearing female clothing for an improper purpose.
The Prosecutor Sergeant Chalmers said that the Police were on patrol on Sunday morning when they saw Bowen strolling along Water street wearing a mini skirt and carrying a wallet.
The Prosecutor said that Bowen was twisting his waist from side to side like a female.
