'Maybe tomorrow maybe the day after tomorrow it will be happen again,' said Demishevich. 'Maybe the next week someone kill me. It has become so hard to live as a transgender in this country. The people hate us. The people every single day attacking and killing the transgender. Turkey is not safe anymore.'
