Memorable feat by autistic Karan
KARAN Beri is a name to remember, after stepping up as Bahrain's only competitor in the World Memory Championsh ips.

The 20-year-old's ability to remember dates and numbers so impressed international organisers that they allowed him a seat as a special entrant in the three-day tournament, which concluded in Bahrain yesterday.

It was an unforgettable achievement for the autistic youngster, who has risen above the misery of being bullied for years at school and battered by setbacks, as he tried to cope with life. view article
