The prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the first and second accused had mens rea possession or acted with common intention to traffic the drugs because the evidence only established a residential link, not a direct link to the drugs; missing corroborative forensic evidence (DNA/fingerprints), multiple access means and plausible alternative explanations rebutted the presumption of trafficking on a balance of probabilities; there was no prima facie case against the third accused. Accordingly all accused were acquitted and discharged.
