The court accepted prosecution evidence including chemist analysis and witnesses that the drugs were found in the accused's hand and that the accused had custody/control and knowledge; SP3's recorded statement materially contradicted his in-court evidence and was used to impeach him; defence account of a third person was an afterthought and not credible; on the whole evidence the prosecution proved both elements beyond reasonable doubt so the accused was convicted on both counts and sentenced; a conditional stay pending appeal was granted.
