Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Kallu Khan under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act for possession of illegal substances. The court found that the evidence presented by the prosecution was sufficient to confirm the High Court's decision, which had previously reduced the default sentence. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the ten-year rigorous imprisonment and fine imposed by the lower courts.
