PETALING JAYA: Physical and verbal attacks against the transgender community must stop, say DAP leaders Hannah Yeoh and Syahredzan Johan.

In a joint statement, the Segambut MP and the lawyer, who is also Lim Kit Siang's political secretary, said any such attacks were gross violations of the human rights of members of the transgender community, who should enjoy the same fundamental liberties as any other Malaysian citizen.
