Transsexual Wiccan takes vilification case to tribunal

Olivia Watts, an Australian Wiccan healer who is also transsexual, is at the center of a religious war due to be played out before the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. Watts alleges religious vilification, which began when she decided to run for public office.

Since then, her business on the city's outer suburban fringe has collapsed; she has been physically attacked; and her home and car vandalized.
