The prosecution failed to prove the essential elements of the offence and to establish a prima facie case because ownership/control and knowledge of the seized goods were not shown and there were material defects and inconsistencies in the identification and chain of custody of the exhibits; accordingly the accused was discharged and acquitted without being called to enter defence.
