The victim's colleagues did not know his gender identity. Once, when he arrived at work, cisgender men colleagues gathered and asked the victim to come out. They surrounded him and began to tell him that they knew about his identity and asked the trans man to show his genitals. The victim tried to justify himself, saying that it is not true to avoid physical violence. At this point came the director, who dispersed the crowd and led the victim out from the crowd. Thus, the victim managed to escape possible physical and sexual abuse.
