In addition, in my view, the Criminal Code is more likely to protect the rights of defendants than a sense of justice for victims of criminal acts. In examining and adjudicating cases of defamation (blasphemous crimes), the judge needs to consider the situation of the victim witness, with the aim of protecting the dignity and honor of the victim, so that the verdicts are met with a sense of justice.
