The High Court upheld the trial judge's findings that the prosecution established uninterrupted chain of custody and sufficient evidence of the appellant's control and knowledge of the seized cannabis; the defence explanation invoking a third party ("Li Botak") was unproven and raised late such that adverse inferences under s.114(g) Evidence Act 1950 were not inappropriate; therefore conviction under s.6 and sentence under s.39A(2) Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 were affirmed.
