Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 8 read with Section 18 of the N.D.P.S. Act for possession of opium, rejecting the argument that a site plan was necessary to establish the location of the arrest on a public road. The Court found that the police complied with the requirements of Section 50 of the Act, as the appellant was informed of his rights and consented to the search. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed.
