Section 9C Drugs (Government Analyst) Rules, 2001, R4 (2) Validating drug possession evidence Sample of alleged prohibited substance recovered from a truck, not to the Chemical Examiner within 72 hours of occupation. Sent. As required by the Sub-Control of Drugs (Government Analysts) Rule 4 (2) of 2001, unexpected suspicion of two months in the delivery of the sample raised serious doubts over the issue of prosecution, prosecutors said. The contradictions in the statements were clear. The recovered marijuana was taken but only one sample was sent to the Chemical Examiner who made no attempt to arrest the owner of the truck who was told that the prohibited articles were recovered when the prohibited articles were found hidden in a vehicle. It was not enough to prove guilt against such person, no prohibited article was recovered from the accused person. If taken into the possession of a conscious person, he will not make any trial of his sentence and the conviction of the accused was set aside. And they were acquitted of the charge.
