Transphobic Hate Crime After Transgender Day Of Remembrance
A friend of deceased Nilay stressed the fact that this transphobic hate crime took place right after 20 November Transgender Day of Remembrance: “The attack took place yesterday after 3pm. Our mutual friend E. talked to Nilay on phone around 3 pm. Nilay said that her client was about to arrive and then she hanged up. Later, we tried to call her again but couldn’t reach. E. got suspicious at night and went to her home. She insistently knocked on the door but there was no answer. She called a locksmith and when they entered the house, they found Nilay’s dead body.
