At the same time, a group of guys — local “tough guys” who had come to deal with their own court case — noticed her.

At first, they exchanged mocking smirks. Then came the insults they didn’t even try to hide.

— Hey guys, look at that, — one of them said, leaning closer. — If we hurt you, what would you do? Run away? … Oh, right! I forgot you can’t run.

The guys burst out laughing. The woman didn’t even lift her head.

The second one stepped closer, brazenly stuffing his hands into his pockets:

— You know, my mom says people become disabled because of a huge sin. So what did you do, huh? Who did you cross?

— Come on, — the third chimed in. — I’m curious about something else… what kind of engine does your car have? Electric? Or do you need to be charged too?

The laughter grew louder — crude, demonstrative, as if they enjoyed feeling powerful over someone who couldn’t stand up and walk away. One of the guys began stroking her cheek. It was all extremely vile and disgusting.

— Hey, boys, — said the most arrogant one, — so what, should we give her a little ride down the corridor? And then, if she wants, maybe we can take her home with us.

— Or let’s send her down in the elevator with no brakes, — another added.

They laughed, joked, humiliated her, absolutely certain no one would do anything to them. The people around them looked away — afraid to intervene or simply pretending nothing was happening.

But those guys couldn’t even imagine who that woman really was or what would happen to them very soon… 😢😨 Continuation in the first comment 👇👇

The woman took out her phone, turned on the front camera, and calmly recorded:

“This is happening to me right now. In 2025. In a government building, in a country where the rights of people with disabilities are protected. People are laughing at me, thinking I can’t defend myself. Let’s share this video and prove to everyone that we are not weak.”

The video was 12 seconds long. The guys didn’t even notice. They understood everything only the next day.

When the woman posted the video on her blog — a project about life with a disability, where she has 18 million followers.

Within five hours, the video had gained 8 million views. Within ten, the whole country knew what had happened.

Journalists, human rights activists, the police — everyone came to the courthouse to investigate.

Two of the guys were fired from a security company. The third was removed from a municipal position. The rest were fined for personal insult and humiliation of human dignity. Thousands of comments poured in — all of them supporting the woman.

The irony was that she didn’t accuse anyone. She simply showed the truth.

And those who laughed and said, “You won’t be able to defend yourself,” suddenly became people even their own friends began to avoid.
