Photographic evidence showing the collector signature field on the urine bottle label blank contradicted SP4's sworn testimony of signing; this raised a viable alternative inference that two different bottles existed, breaking chain of custody and preventing the prosecution from proving that the analysed specimen belonged to the accused; therefore no prima facie case was established and the accused was discharged without being called to enter defence.
