Amnesty International Malaysia says Putrajaya’s religious education for transgenders harmful, should be outlawed

KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 — The Malaysian chapter of Amnesty International today urged the government to stop persecuting transgenders by forcing religious indoctrination on them in order to make them “return to the right path”.

Amnesty International Malaysia interim executive director Preethi Bhardwaj said that being transgender “is not a crime”, in response to the “full licence” given  to arrest and “educate” the community.
