    The court found prosecution proved every element of s15(1)(a) beyond reasonable doubt: the urine sample was shown to belong to the accused via an unbroken chain of custody, the urine testing and laboratory analysis complied with s31A, Amphetamine and Methamphetamine (scheduled drugs) were detected, the presumption under s37(k) applied and was not rebutted because the defence failed to call material evidence (Dr MM Smith) or produce credible contemporaneous proof; therefore accused convicted and sentenced.
