People with disabilities should know that they have rights, and that mistreatment or discrimination based on their disability is against the law. They can report such cases to the relevant authorities, such as anti-discrimination bodies or advocacy organizations for persons with disabilities. It is also important for them to understand their right to an effective remedy which includes access to a fair trial, rehabilitation and justice. Reporting mistreatment and speaking out can be an important form of empowerment in itself, leading to more awareness and change.
