KUALA TERENGGANU – Mohd Asraf Hafiz Abdul Aziz, 25, who failed to changed his name and status in MyKad to Aleesha Farhana after it was rejected by the High Court here yesterday, admitted he was stressed with the society’s negative perspective towards him, but it did not break his enthusiasm to continue to fight for his desire.
“Because we were angry and sad with his actions, we chased him out of the house and burned all his female clothes, but we know he changed into a woman and often
comes home but only sleeps in the car,” she said.
“Finally, the whole family accepted the fact experienced by Mohd Ashraf and we are not living in denial anymore, but we have been segregated by society.
