Kisheria, treason siyo kauli au criticism, bali ni kitendo cha wazi kinachoathiri sovereignty ya nchi. Unless Lissu committed a specific and proven act against the state , not just speaking against the government , basi it’s legally weak to label his actions as treasonous.
 

Soma ‘section VII’ ya penal code, treason imefafamuliwa kwa kina in article 39. Au kwenye katiba na ‘Treason Act 1970’ utapata maelezo zaidi.

Hizo ulizoweka ni ‘actus and mens rea’ (burden of proof) za treason.

An act, has various definitions from the law, which include; execution of the intention or public incitement or planning to commit.

Aina maana natetea serikali kuendelea na hiyo kesi ya kijinga (given the gravity of punishment).

Nonetheless you don’t have to collaborate with any to commit a treason offence.

Nia ya JMT si kesi ya uhaini.Ni kupoteza muda,kupooza hekaheka za CDM,kutisha jamii iogope serikali,kumnyong'onyeza TAML na CCM kujitengenezea fursa ya kushinda uchaguzi bila bughudha wala hawakupigia hesabu za hasara zake.Basi!
 
Matumizi mabaya ya rasilimali za umma. Garama inayotumika katika kesi hii nadhani mpaka kufikia sasa ni zaidi ya wananchi 1000 na ushehe wangenunuliwa baiskeli

The current precedent in Tanzania with regard to treason ingredients is as above. Departure from it is another thing altogether and categorically wamesema ili treason itendeke haya inabidi yawe yamefanyika (acts), that is what the precedent says.

All in all ni discussion nzuri kuelimishana......ngoja nisome hicho ulichokiandika. Thanks.

section vII naiangalia siioni.........that relates to treason

The starting point of any prosecutor or defence in a criminal case is not precedence (but looking at the facts of the case)

Thereafter it’s the duty of prosecution to provide the ‘burden of proof’ on the allegations until proven otherwise (the matter is assumed innocence).

There is no such thing as ‘ingredients’ of crime in criminal law anywhere in the world. The basis of criminal offences are always expressed from the nation penal code (summarised, same offenses could be expressed in different acts).

NAJARIBU KU- IMAGINE A SCENARIO NIKIWA PEKE YANGU NINAVYOWEZA KUPINDUA SERIKALI, PEKE YANGU PER SE!

AN IMAGINARY SITUATION, Let say labda niende na bunduki niiteke TBC, nichukue mic nijitangaze kuwa kuanzia sasa mimi ndiye Rais!!!!!! Can this be treason?

You are very correct!1 Lakini literature inasema hivyo, may be let us first define the word "ingredient"/elements

tuwaachie mahakama na maloya
 
Hiyo kesi ni aibu tu kwa serikali, na ndio maana wanafanya vibweka vya kuomba iahirishwe kila mara, hakuna kesi pale.

Hakimu angekuwa anajielewa angeifutilia mbali zamani sana.
Uko sahihi kabisa. Na walivyo vilaza, rais anakaa kabisa Ikulu eti anafuatilia kesi. Ksema ukweli sikudhani kuwa serikali hii ina watu wa hovyo namna hii. Huyo hakimu anatumika ili watoto wake na yeye wapate kula japo hili nalo siyo kisingizio. Watu wamelewa madaraka na wasijue kuwa siku moja tu inaweza kubadilisha mengi kwenye siasa. Magufuli na wapambe wake nao walikuwa wamelewa chakari mpaka siku mambo yalipobadilika bila wao kuamini.
