Judgment text as reported

SHAH NAWAZ VS State Ss. 9(c) & 25---Criminal Procedure Code (V of 1898), S. 103---Possession of narcotics---Appreciation of evidence---Prosecution case was that 79 kilograms charas was recovered from the vehicle of the accused persons---Prosecution witnesses were police officials---Although no independent mashir was associated with the arrest and recovery of the accused persons and the narcotics, however this was not surprising because people despite being asked, as in this case, were reluctant to be involved in cases concerning narcotic dealers---Even otherwise, S. 103, Cr.P.C. was excluded for offences falling under the Control of Narcotic Substances Act, 1997, by virtue of S. 25 of the said Act---Circumstances established that the prosecution had proved the case beyond a reasonable doubt---Appeal against conviction was dismissed, in circumstances.
