Sedition Has No Room in Modern Democracies, Time for The Law to Be Repealed
The law has been misused and abused several times even though convictions are extremely rare.

Rights26/Jul/2021
I must begin this piece with my compliments to those who have filed the recent petition in the Supreme Court challenging the role of Section 124A of the IPC, a colonial law which made sedition a crime, in democratic India.
Sedition, it must be emphasised, is no simple crime. Whoever âbrings or attempts to bring into hatred or contempt, or excites or attempts to excite disaffection towards the government established by law in India shall be punished with imprisonment for life to which fine may be added, or with imprisonment which may extend to three years, to which fine may be added, or with fine.â This is a serious offence. And yet, the charge is treated lightly by the police and the prosecution.
Reasons 17 June 2021
The SDT ordered that the respondent should be suspended from practice for two years and six months from 4 June 2021.
The respondent had wounded and inflicted grievous bodily harm without intent on person A, contrary to section 20 of the Offences against the Person Act 1861, thereby breaching principles 2 and 6 of the SRA Principles 2011.
Having given careful consideration to all the matters raised by the respondent on his behalf including his genuine remorse, full co-operation with the regulator and that he had no previous disciplinary findings, the SDT had concluded that only limited weight could be given to these factors when evaluated against the inherent seriousness of a conviction for grievous bodily harm (albeit without intent).

靑 “논의 안해” 박범계 “시기상 불가능” 이재용(왼쪽), 박근혜.
국정농단 사건으로 유죄 확정판결을 받고 수감 중인 이재용 삼성전자 부회장에 대한 가석방·사면설이 정치권 일각에서 제기되고 있다. 현재 복역 중인 박근혜·이명박 전 대통령 사면설도 흘러나오고 있다. 청와대는 그러나 “논의한 바 없다”는 기존 입장을 재확인했다. 정치적 파장이 불가피한 만큼 최종 결정권자인 문재인 대통령의 선택이 쉽지 않을 것이라는 분�
