Hi, my name is Shania. I was out with my friends for some drinks. Except for one of us we are all a bunch of queers. So, I was teasing the one norm amongst us. One of my fellow queers told me to stop teasing him but I did not so he strangled me until I could not breathe. Instead of stopping me from being strangled the man I was teasing joined in and beat me up. I was able to make it home but three days later I went to the hospital because of a headache. I died shortly thereafter.
What was supposed to be a happy drinking session in Pasig City turned tragic after a transgender woman died after she was allegedly struck and strangled by two of her peers.
Victim Shaina, 29, had gone for a drink with four of her friends in Barangay Pineda on March 1. She was teasing one of the suspects but was asked by another LGBTQ member to stop. Tension escalated when the victim continued, leading to the one of the suspects becoming angry and strangling her.
(The victim was teasing the 21-year-old suspect who was not an LGBTQ. Another suspect, an LGBTQ, asked her to stop but she didn’t so the LGBTQ suspect strangled her until she could not breathe.)
(Instead of stopping the suspect, the 21-year-old beat up the victim.)
Witnesses said they saw blood coming out from Shaina’s ears, nose and mouth during the incident. The victim later managed to go home but after three days, she complained of a headache, prompting her to go to the hospital.
She passed away on March 7.
(The other suspect was a 26-year old LGBTQ member. The 21-year-old was unemployed. We’re still looking into the case but based on the victim’s injuries, they ganged up on her.)
Police have filed homicide charges against the two suspects.
Meanwhile, the victim’s kin vowed justice for Shaina.
(I want justice for her death. What they did was too much.)
