Rioting and Unlawful Assembly

Rioting and unlawful assembly refer to illegal gatherings of people that disrupt public order. A riot typically involves violent behavior among a group, causing chaos and potential harm to people or property. Unlawful assembly occurs when a group gathers with the intent to commit a crime or when the gathering poses a serious risk to public peace, even if it initially seems peaceful. Both actions are serious offenses in public order crimes law, as they threaten the safety and stability of the community, leading to potential legal consequences for those involved.
