Arriving at the location, the victim was invited into the house to rest. At that time the house was empty of people. After a while, the perpetrators' colleagues came with liquor and then a drinking party in the living room.

Because they were drunk due to the influence of alcohol, these perpetrators entered the room where the victim rested. The victim was then forced to take off his clothes, even though he had rebelled and fought back, but in the end he was helpless and even grabbed by a scratch on his neck.
