Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 25 of the Arms Act and Section 5 of the TADA Act, finding no infirmity in the evidence presented by the prosecution, which included testimony from the Investigating Officer and a recovery witness. The Court rejected the appellant's claim of police planting evidence, affirming the trial court's findings and the reasonableness of the sentence imposed. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed.
