Transgenders attacked Police Station after a raid on a music party

A group of transgenders attacked Pishtakhara Police Station after police raided their music party in Peshawar. According to media reports, an angered mob of transgender persons reached the relevant police station and protested in front of it.

This violent attack of transgenders on a police station came after its police officers conducted a raid on their party on June 5, 2024 night.

However, a police official told the media there were reports of aerial gunfire during a music event in the raid area with the presence of criminal elements. Hence, it led them to raid the venue.

Following that, the transgender people who were dancing at that party protested against the raid outside the police station. Eventually, their protest turned into a violent demonstration when they tried to enter the police station and attacked the front gate.

In a separate incident, a group of transgenders attacked and vandalized Police Station in Kharian last month. This incident happened on May 6, 2024, in Kharian Tehsil of Gujarat district in central Punjab.
