" The LGBTI [lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex] community was A Secret underground community, but we knew each other and our network, and if one of us got arrested, they could have found the rest of us, " he told The Bbc .
" Kabul is not a Big City , and with The Way The Taliban are ruling the country, it was not That difficult to find High Profile LGBTI people. We also heard a couple of people were arrested. "
The Man 's escape was only possible with The Help of international Lgbt organisations. An initial attempt to leave on evacuation flights out of Kabul Airport - past the " terrifying" Taliban Guards - failed.
But almost two months on, having made it to a third country to wait for a visa, The Man arrived in the UK.
Officials explained That the UK Foreign Secretary and UK and Canadian organisations Stonewall and Rainbow Railroad intervened to help The First 29 people.
More members of Afghanistan's Lgbt community are expected to leave in The Coming months.

For The Refugees , it is the start of a New Life .
" Britain is a new home for me, " says The Man . " Everything is new to me here. A new lifestyle, a new language and culture. I Am a bit nervous about my future, and I Am trying to figure out where to start my New Life , but man, I feel safe and free!
" This is amazing. "
