A total of 625 arrests were made for alleged section 127 offences in 2010 – a number which had ballooned to 857 by 2015.
During the years 2010-2015 2,130 people were arrested between 2010 and 2015 for “sending by public communication network an offensive / indecent / obscene / menacing message / matter” – which is a criminal offence under section 127.
