    AB-82D-15-11/2023 (Mahkamah Majistret)

    The prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case because a material discrepancy in the chain of custody—specifically a date mismatch between the bottle label and the custody form prepared by the arresting officer—created reasonable doubt as to the identity and integrity of the urine sample; without reliable identity of the exhibit the laboratory analysis lacked probative value and the accused was discharged under Criminal Procedure Code s173(f)(ii).
