Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 8/18, 8/20(B)(ii), and 8/20(B)(i) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, affirming that the prosecution had established the possession of contraband substances beyond reasonable doubt. The Court emphasized that the ownership and possession of the contraband were adequately proven through independent witness testimonies and proper procedural adherence during the search and seizure. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the trial court's findings and the High Court's decision.
