PETALING JAYA: Prominent lawyers have criticised Deputy Home Minister Datuk Mohd Azis Jamman (pic) for defending the use of the Sedition Act to arrest the brother of Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Lokman Noor Adam.

DAP national legal bureau chairman Ramkarpal Singh said Mohd Azis' remark that the Sedition Act would continue to be used until it is amended or abolished, was "regretted".
