Prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case because it did not prove legal possession and knowledge: credible defence evidence (contemporaneous police report and sealed packaging bearing recipient details), the prosecution's failure to call or investigate material witnesses (Amir and Isfahan) and the absence of compliant inculpatory admissions left significant gaps; chemical identification alone and quantity do not substitute for proof of mens rea and power of disposal; therefore the accused was discharged at the close of the prosecution case.
