A 16-year-old young man has denounced that he has been the victim of a homophobic assault in Algeciras (Cádiz), where he was hit in the face by a former high school classmate, also 16, at the door of a nightlife venue.
As stated in the complaint, to which Efe has had access, the event took place last Saturday around 9:30 p.m., when the victim, accompanied by a friend, went outside the premises, where there are security cameras.

received a strong blow from the back in a surprising way
and, when he was able to turn around, he recognized MS, a former high school classmate, who began to give him a series of "punches and scratches" on his face, the complaint says.
Due to the state of being "shocked" by the aggression,
the complainant does not remember if he was subjected to insults during it
, but he does point out that this young man had previously attacked him, although never with such violence.
As he later told the National Police, during the time they shared a high school, he
received calls from anonymous people
, with messages such as:
"I'm going to kill you, you fag, you son of a bitch
. The best thing you can do is commit suicide. There should be no people. like you in this world. "
After the attack, the victim went to the Punta de Europa hospital, in Algeciras, to be treated and to contribute the
part of injuries
to the complaint that he filed at the National Police Station.
Both the victim and his mother filed a complaint at the Algeciras National Police station together with the medical report, reports Europa Press of the association Roja Directa Andalucía Lgtbi +.
Thus, and as a result of the impacts produced on the face, the victim, as this association has added, has suffered the breakage of several teeth, a
fact that has condemned
while recalling that "hate crimes continue to increase considerably."
In addition, this group has ensured that it has made its legal and psychological services available to the family of the injured, as well as the facts in the knowledge of the Minister of Equality, Social Policies and Conciliation of the Junta de Andalucía, Rocío Ruiz, of the Directorate General of Attention to Diversity of the Junta de Andalucía, and of the Prosecutor's Office for hate crimes.
