SUHBAT KHAN PATHAN VS State S. 9(c)---Possession of narcotics---Appreciation of evidence--- Minor contradictions in prosecution evidence---Immaterial---Prosecution case was that 100 kilograms charas was recovered from the vehicle driven by the accused---Allegedly, overwriting in the timings of mashirnama of arrest and recovery was found---At the top of the mashirnama there was no overwriting, but in the body of the mashirnama in the timing 1130 there was some overwriting but it was not fatal to the case of prosecution---Minor contradictions or improvements in the prosecution evidence were to be overlooked---However, only material contradictions or overwriting were to be considered---Accused failed to point out that the overwriting was made dishonestly---Moreover, prosecution had not taken any benefit from such overwriting, therefore, contention of defence was without merit---Prosecution had succeeded to prove its case against the accused---Appeal against conviction was dismissed, in circumstances.
