    The Court held that prosecution proved custody and control of six boxes containing 83,408 grams methamphetamine; the trial judge properly invoked s.37(d) DDA thereby deeming possession and knowledge unless rebutted; the appellant failed to rebut on balance of probabilities; given the quantity and surrounding circumstances the acts of receiving/importing met the statutory definition of trafficking under s.2 DDA; therefore conviction and death sentence were safe and appeal dismissed.
