The prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case because critical elements were not proved: exclusive possession/control and knowledge were not established for the seized parcels and items; key identification evidence (acupakai) was inadmissible or unreliable due to failure to give required warnings and lack of contemporaneous records; mobile phone/waybill linkage lacked provenance and chain of custody; alternative explanations (Ivan Lee = Chong Je Long, access by others) created reasonable doubt — therefore accused acquitted without being called to enter defence.
