The Court held the trial judge correctly found a prima facie case: possession and knowledge were properly inferred from the presence of drugs in the appellant's room, proximity to the appellant and personal items linking him to the room, and the s37(da) presumption applied given the quantity; additionally, refusal to further adjourn or allow additional submissions did not amount to miscarriage because adequate opportunity had been afforded and s181 CPC is discretionary. Accordingly the conviction and mandatory death sentence under s39B were affirmed.
