    Case Summary: CRA/1200/2025 Court Decision: The High Court of Chhattisgarh partially allowed the appeal. It upheld the conviction of both appellants under Section 20(b)(ii)(B) of the NDPS Act for possessing 13 kg of ganja, but reduced their 8-year sentence to 1 year and 3 months (time already served). The Rs. 50,000 fine and default provisions were maintained. Key Reasoning: The court found the conviction legally sound based on evidence. However, applying rehabilitation principles from Supreme Court precedent, it reduced the sentence considering: the appellants' time in custody (4 months 27 days during trial plus subsequent jail time), clean criminal records, educational status (12th class students), and their young ages. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
