Judgment text as reported

HAROON FAROOQ VS FEDERATION OF PAKISTAN S. 124a---Sedition---Pre-conditions---It is an offence to bring into hatred or contempt or excite disaffection towards Federal or Provincial Government---There is a wide margin of appreciation of terms of "hatred" and "disaffection" and it is entirely subjective for a construction to be put on them---Their degrees may also vary considerably but that may not matter ultimately since if it is encompassed in the term in the opinion of a decision maker, it is sufficient for an offence to be cognizable.
