The members of the intervention unit asked for the personal documents of the mentioned guys in order to identify them. After the identification, the discriminatory behavior of the mentioned officials began. According to the clients, the officers started asking "what kind of documents" they have. After one of the transgender men explained to the officers that the three of them were transgender, the officers began to ask personal questions such as if the boys had undergone surgery, how it was possible, how someone happens to be transgender and how they had to act according to the documents, i.e. address them by the name from the documents.
