PETALING JAYA: The mother of an autistic man who was arrested for allegedly moles­ting a woman had to tell her son that he was in a Gerak Khas movie so he would not be traumatised by the incident.

On Sept 11, the 22-year-old man (pic) was arrested for allegedly touching the 24-year-old woman’s chest after a birthday celebration at a restaurant.
