The magistrate's accepted factual findings that the appellant reached into and opened hidden plastic bags after interacting with others, combined with the packaging, concealment and high street value of the drugs and contextual factors (multiple phones and cash), supported the irresistible inference that the appellant had control, possession and knowledge of the drugs and thus dealt with them; the appellate court found no basis to overturn the magistrate's credibility or fact findings and dismissed the appeal.
