    The Court held that the prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant had exclusive possession, custody and control of the vehicle and the drugs therein, supported by concealment in multiple compartments, forensic/DNA linkage, ownership/use evidence and evasive conduct; therefore the inference of knowledge and trafficking by transportation under the DDA was properly drawn and the belated third‑party defence was implausible and insufficient to raise reasonable doubt, so there was no misdirection on burden and the conviction was safe.
