He is an experienced on clinical psychopharmacology of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders.
Thank you for posting those references. This is indeed a bizarre case and getting more bizarre with each day, so far.
The young man had been noticed to be disturbed and had been referred to counseling. Dr. Ismail Ak is an expert and author in the particular field most directly related to the guy's disorder.
So it's possible that the writing on the guy's arm said, ISMAIL AK, and the K was written in a way that people *thought* it said, ISMAIL AX. That seems more likely to me than a connection to Moby Dick or to Islamic terrorism.
