The chemist's evidence established the nature and weight of the drug, but the prosecution failed to prove possession because proximity alone did not establish knowledge or exclusive control; non-calling of the accused's wife created a material gap. On maximum evaluation a prima facie case was not made out, therefore the accused was acquitted and discharged without being called to make his defence.
