The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Sk. Sakkar @ Mannan under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, affirming the High Court's dismissal of his appeal. The court found that the prosecution had established the appellant's involvement in the possession of 11kgs of ganja, which was seized during a police raid. The court emphasized the adherence to statutory procedures during the arrest and seizure, leading to the conclusion that the conviction was justified.
