2017 (10) TMI 666 - HC - Indian LawsConviction for the offence under Section 20 (b)(ii)(C) & Section 28 read with Section 23(c) of NDPS Act - Held that:- The prosecution evidence is completely reliable and trustworthy. The aforementioned events clearly depict that the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the appellant are without merits and on mere conjectures and surmises and hence are rejected. On perusal of the statement of the witnesses who recovered and deposited the sample to the CRCL, it is clear that out of the recovered charas, three samples of 30 grams each were taken and placed in small polythene wrapped with tape and kept in three brown colour paper envelopes marked as A-1, A-2 and A-3. The remaining substance was kept in a transparent polythene bag and then packed in a tin box which was converted into cloth pulanda and sealed with custom seal No.6. The sealed material including the suitcase were seized under NDPS Act, the documents of the appellant were also seized and his statement was recorded under Section 67 NDPS Act. The impugned judgment of the learned Special Judge, NDPS for convicting the appellant under Section 20 (b)(ii)(C) and Section 28 read with Section 23(c) of NDPS Act for ten years rigorous imprisonment together with a fine of Rs. two lakhs (cumulatively) cannot be interfered with. I find no merit in the appeal and the same is dismissed.
