Is uploading videos on Lawyers considered as Defamatory ?


06-Dec-2023 (In Civil Law)
A friend of mine makes vines and funny videos. He has his Instagram profile where he uploaded a video/ vine that is related to lawyers/advocates. It went a little viral and some known pages started uploading it: On his Instagram Profile:  Recently Lawyers/Advocates and people started threatening him that he shall face consequences and this video was defamatory considering it was a light hearted video and had a disclaimer too. Any response would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Yes it is an offence punishable under law and your friend can be booked under different sections of law now your friend can make an apology for posting such video and make that apology public otherwise he has to face the santions of law
