As per case facts, a policeman received secret information about a car transporting Ganja. The car was intercepted, and a large quantity of Ganja was seized from the appellant. He ... was convicted by a Special Court. The appeal to the Supreme Court challenges the conviction, citing non-compliance with statutory provisions regarding informing superiors and improper sampling procedures, specifically mixing contents from multiple packets before sampling. The question arose whether the prosecution had sufficiently established that the samples sent for chemical analysis were indeed from the substance seized from the appellant, thereby proving the seized substance was contraband as per the NDPS Act. Finally, the Court found serious discrepancies in the prosecution's evidence, including issues with sample traceability and inventory records, leading to the conclusion that the link between the seized substance and the analyzed samples was not established. Therefore, the conviction was quashed, and the appellant was acquitted.
