Recommended Posts

So who is feeling clever (or brave) enough to have a go at these questions?

 

1. What are these regulations about?

 

2. Where did they apply?

 

3. When did they apply?

 

I'll post the answers at the end of the week.

These 1921 Instructions for implimentation of Martial Law were drawng on existing laws & procedures laid down in:

 

The Code of Criminal Procedure

The Indian Volunteers Act 1869

The Indian Penal Code

The Whipping Act 1909

Secretary of State's dispatches to the Viceroy & Governor-General of India 1920

 

The need to standardise instructions was no doubt to clarify procedures in trying to quel the unease generated by the shameful business of 1919:
