Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 15 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, for possession of 480 kgs of poppy husk. The Court found that the trial court had properly evaluated the evidence presented, including the testimonies of police officials and the circumstances of the arrest. The defense's claims of false implication due to enmity were not substantiated, leading to the dismissal of the appeal by the State of Punjab.
