Colombia: Lesbophobic attacks against lesbian family with toddler

Following ongoing harassment and lesbophobic abuse, Emilie Díaz and Kerly Rozo claim that they and their mothers were verbally and physically assaulted by local residents. The alleged incident occurred at the house the couple shares share with their two year old daughter in the La Rosita neighbourhood of Villavicencio.

Emilie and Kerly allege that on 18 April they had asked their neighbours to turn down their music, as their young daughter was asleep. The situation escalated rapidly following this request. When one of the mothers went outside to deescalate the situation, she was pysically assaulted. Emilie was attacked by three men when she attempted to defend herself from violence.

Emilie and Kerly claim that one of the assailants broke the windows of their home and threatened to kill them. In a video circulating on social media, one assailant can be heard shouting “You f***ing lesbians! Do you want to d*e? You f***ing lesbians!”.
