Меня зовут Севара мне 22 года живу с парнем геем снимаем квартиру в городе Ташкенте в Яшнабадском районе! Я с Али вначале нашего знакомства были парой и решили жить вместе в начале всё было хорошо, у нас были взаимные чувства, но так как я работала Секс работницей он часто начал ревновать и у нас часто были ссоры! Но он понимал, что если мне не работать денег не хватить не на что! Он начал поздно приходить или вообще оставаться у друзей, но ему нужны были деньги, и он брал их у меня! В начале я давала, а потом стала ущемлять, и он в один из дней обокрал меня и ушёл. Я позвонила ему он не поднял трубку. через знакомых я нашла его. произошло скандал мы подрались он сказал иди куда хочешь жалуйся мне ничего не будет, а ты сядешь потом я узнала, что он работает и на районный отдел внутренних дел как подсадная утка, после чего я перестала общение с ним! Но в один из дней он позвонил и наглым образом начел требовать с меня деньги в размере 200 долларов я сказала иди работай и мне больше не звони и бросила трубку на следующий день ко мне приехала милиция. хорошо я была в мужской одежде они начали смотреть мои вещи и спрашивать чьи платья и парики я сказала что знакомая оставила но они сказали что у них другие сведенья и что я транс девушка меня забрали в районный отдел внутренних дел по статьи 120 Республики Узбекистана и провели мед экспертизу взяли кровь и проверяли мой анус это было очень больно но я не могла ничего поделать они применили силу после чего двое суток держали меня в подвале ровд и допрашивали применяли ко мне физическую силу и хотели посадить по статье 120 но я не признавалась я не ела и не пила я обессылилось. увидев моё состояние они отпустили меня и угрожающий сказали чтобы я покинула столицу и уехала в свой регион.

My name is Sevara, I am 22 years old. I live with a gay guy, we rent an apartment in the city of Tashkent in the Yashnabad district. Ali and I were a couple at the beginning of our acquaintance and decided to live together. At first, everything was fine, we had mutual feelings, but since I worked as a sex worker, he often became jealous, and we fought. But he understood that if I didn’t work, there wouldn’t be enough money for anything. He started coming in late or even staying with friends, but he needed money, and he took it from me. At first I gave it to him, then I began to withhold, and one day he robbed me and left. I called him and he didn't pick up the phone. I found him through a friend. There was a row and we brawled, he said: "You can go wherever you want and complain, nothing will happen to me, and you will go to jail." Then I found out that he also works for the district department of internal affairs as a decoy, after which I stopped talking to him. But one day he called and was unashamedly demanded $ 200. I said: "Go to work and don’t call me again" and hung up. On the next day, police came to me. Well, I was in men's clothes, they started looking at my things and asking who the dresses and wigs belonged to. I said that a friend had left them. But they said they had different information and that I was a trans girl. They took me to the district department of internal affairs under Article 120 of the Republic of Uzbekistan and conducted a medical exam. They took blood and checked my anus, it was very painful, but I couldn’t do anything, they used force, after which they kept me in the basement of the police department for two days and interrogated me. They used physical force on me and wanted to imprison me under article 120, but I didn’t confess, I didn’t eat and I didn't drink, I was exhausted. Seeing my condition, they released me and threateningly told me to leave the capital and go to my region. I changed my place of residence, and I'm afraid that they will find me.
