After reading the German and English version I am a little puzzled, since the German version says, that they were kept and transvestites stayed unharmed when not homosexual while the English version says:
After the Nazis came to power, most passes were revoked or German police refused to recognize them.

Sofern Trans*personen den „gegen sie erhobenen Homosexualitätsverdacht entkräften konnten, lässt sich in keinem Fall eine Strafverfolgung nachweisen. "

If trans*persons “could invalidate the suspicion of homosexuality, there is no evidence of criminal prosecution.”
