Understanding the autistic


Dr Ramanathan says people should educate themselves before criminalising those with autism.

THE recent arrest of 22-year-old autistic man Ahmad Ziqri Morshidi, who allegedly molested a woman at a restaurant in Subang Jaya, has sparked intense debate.

A majority of the public were on his side and said that Ahmad should not have been detained, what more handcuffed in remand clothing and barefoot.
