With calm dignity, Ashraf Rossli’s Malaysian mother and father told of the trauma their 21-year-old son still suffers and the tough lessons the attack has taught them about this country.
Retired army officer Rossli Harun and his primary school teacher wife Maznah Abu Mansor yesterday spoke to The Mail on Sunday from Ashraf’s grandparents’ home on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur.
Mr Rossli said: ‘The boy who attacked my son was young – he was only 17. But he wasn’t at school, he wasn’t at work, and he was getting Government money.
‘In Britain, people who work pay tax and it goes to people who do no work. I don’t understand that.’
