Shaina Bayabay
Age 291 Mar 2024
Pasig City, Metro Maniila (Philippines)
Strangled
Shaina was killed during a fight while she was drinking with two other people.
What was supposed to be a happy drinking session in Pasig City turned tragic after a transgender woman died after she was allegedly struck and strangled by two of her peers.
Victim Shaina, 29, had gone for a drink with four of her friends in Barangay Pineda on March 1. She was teasing one of the suspects but was asked by another LGBTQ member to stop. Tension escalated when the victim continued, leading to one of the suspects becoming angry and strangling her.
Witnesses said they saw blood coming out of Shaina's ears, nose and mouth during the incident. The victim later managed to go home but after three days, she complained of a headache, prompting her to go to the hospital.
She passed away on March 7.
"'Our one suspect is also LGBTQ, he is 26 years old. The other one is 21 yrs old unemployed, without a job. We can't say right now who was behind them, but based on what was found, they worked together to beat her up".
Police have filed homicide charges against the two suspects.
