For appeal KA-41S-4-06/2022 the High Court held the prosecution failed to discharge its burden to exclude access by the identified third party "Shido", relied on hearsay and inadequate investigation, and forensic evidence did not link the appellants to the drugs; convictions were unsafe and were quashed. For appeal KA-41S-5-06/2022 the Court held that drugs found inside a handbag bearing appellant1's driving licence and cards established sufficient control and knowledge under s37(d) and affirmed conviction and sentence for appellant1.
