The Treason Act 1695 enacted, among other things, a rule that treason could be proved only in a trial by the evidence of two witnesses to the same offence. Nearly one hundred years later this rule was incorporated into the U.S. Constitution, [46] which requires two witnesses to the same overt act. It also provided for a three-year time limit on bringing prosecutions for treason (except for assassinating the king), another rule which has been imitated in some common law countries. treason shall consist only in levying war against the State, or assisting any State or person or inciting or conspiring with any person to levy war against the State, or attempting by force of arms or other violent means to overthrow the organs of government established by the Constitution, or taking part or being concerned in or inciting or conspiring with any person to make or to take part or be concerned in any such attempt. [24] Very few people have been prosecuted for the act of treason in New Zealand, and none have been prosecuted in recent years.

Although she has been a resident of the sleepy village of Lochdubh for only a year, in that time Kate has alienated one too many of its residents with her interfering—and not entirely well-intentioned—ways. When Kate���s neighbor sees her lugging a heavy suitcase to the bus stop, he hopes that the prying woman is leaving for good. But two weeks later, Kate’s cousin arrives in town with the news that Kate has gone missing—and she demands that the local police step in.Dual Nationality: TR's "Self-Evident Absurdity", virginia.edu; accessed September 7, 2015.

This is a real feather in her cap as her fiance writes plays in London. Everyone who lives in the small town is happy for her. That is, everyone except for one person. Hamish Macbeth has been falling for Priscilla ever since they have known each other, and now he is dismayed to find out that she may be marrying someone else. This is real, all right, and no amount of pinching himself is going to convince him that it is a dream. From 1947 Japan does not technically have a law of treason. [27] Instead it has an offence against taking part in foreign aggression against the Japanese state ( gaikan zai; literally "crime of foreign mischief"). The law applies equally to Japanese and non-Japanese people, while treason in other countries usually applies only to their own citizens. Technically there are two laws, one for the crime of inviting foreign mischief ( Japan Criminal Code section 2 clause 81) and the other for supporting foreign mischief once a foreign force has invaded Japan. "Mischief" can be anything from invasion to espionage. Before World War II, Imperial Japan had a crime similar to the English crime of high treason ( Taigyaku zai), which applied to anyone who harmed the Japanese emperor or imperial family. This law was abolished by the American occupation force after World War II. [28] Section 16 provides that nothing in Part 2 repeals or affects anything enacted by the Treason Act 1351 (25 Edw.3 c. 2). [14] This section reproduces section 6 of the Treason Felony Act 1848. Christian theology and political thinking until after the Enlightenment considered treason and blasphemy synonymous, as it challenged both the state and the will of God. Kings were considered chosen by God, [4] and to betray one's country was to do the work of Satan.
