Pro-government lobbyists supporting the draconian Sedition Act 1948 have been slammed for trying to "bully" into silence a lawyers' movement urging the law's abolition.

Civil movement Centre For A Better Tomorrow (Cenbet) condemned Gerakan Warganegara Mempertahankan Akta Hasutan 1948 (Movement of Citizens Defending the Sedition Act 1948) for goading its supporters and others to troll the organiser of the Abolish Sedition Act campaign.
