- HCMP598/2022
The Defendant committed civil contempt by intentionally breaching the Incitement Injunction through two widely accessible online comments that incited the bombing of a judicial officer and his family; the deliberate, public and aggravating nature of the conduct and the Defendant's absconding and lack of remorse warranted an immediate custodial sentence of four months and an order that costs be paid to the Secretary for Justice on the indemnity basis, to be summarily assessed.
