Defining the evidence in the possession of Section 9 (C) and 48 narcotics convicts, the trial court convicted the appellant under Section 9 (C) of the Narcotic Substances Act 1997 and was sentenced to seven years imprisonment. And was fined. He was charged with a fine of one lakh rupees, that his sentence would have already passed because the quantity of drugs recovered from him was less than 1100 grams and he had no previous criminal record and his family. Earlier, the prosecution had argued that the FI rupees and criminal cases against the accused were pending, but neither was brought on record to prove anything, nor was the trial. The court's FIR or undisclosed verdict reflects the fact that the accused was punished. In less than seven years, he passed in one year (four years, nine months and two days), and was consequently instructed to release him. The penalty imposed by the trial court was not changed \ r \ n
