Transgender Model, Kesaria Abramidze Stabbed To Death In Georgia After Anti-LGBT Law Passed

A 37-year-old transgender model and influencer, Kesaria Abramidze has been stabbed to death in Georgia.

According to Mail Online, Kesaria Abramidze was killed just one day after the parliament passed a law prohibiting LGBT propaganda, leading to widespread outrage.

It was gathered that the popular model was found with over 50 stab wounds in her home in Tbilisi.

A 26-year-old male suspect, Beka Jaiani, who knew the trans model, was arrested at the airport while apparently trying to leave the country.

Surveillance footage shows him waiting by an elevator in her building and then fleeing down the stairs shortly after the attack.

Kesaria Abramidze was a prominent figure in Georgia, having undergone gender confirmation surgery in 2014.

She represented Georgia at the Miss Trans Star International pageant in 2018 and had over 500,000 followers online.

Georgia’s President, Salome Zurabishvili, who opposed the new anti-LGBT laws, expressed her horror at the news, calling it “a terrible murder” and a “denial of humanity.”

Zurabishvili said that she hopes this tragedy will prompt society to become more compassionate.

“Only this might sober up our society… Hopefully, the killing of this beautiful young woman will at least serve to make us more humane and Christian,’ she said.

This incident marks the third high-profile murder of a transgender woman in Georgia in recent years and follows new laws aligning with Russia that restrict same-sex marriage, adoption, and public support for LGBTQ+ rights.

KanyiDaily recalls that American singer, Ne-Yo offered an apology to the LGBTQ community following controversial comments he made about children and gender identity.

  • This is also the same state that is in the USA that also has a pair of deviants that had abused autistic children that were under their care, and yet the mainstream media, as well as places like Court TV and Law & Crime Network, conveniently remain silent over the issue, as it would upset their bosses that support, and even openly participate, in this, and even worse, deviant, and also outright criminal, and terrorist, behavior in their lives. (The is the Zulock trial if anyone wants to know more information on the matter). I also would not doubt that the deviant that was killed in this attack also had ties to the other deviants that I had previously mentioned as well, but, once again, the mainstream media will try to suppress the full details of the background of this person as well.

  • Oh, wait, the other alphabet soup group fruit/nut/flake is from the COUNTRY of Georgia, and NOT the state of Georgia that is in the USA...well, anyway, there ARE a lot of people that are in BOTH places that do not tolerate such behavior, and for good reasons.
