SUMMARY: Rajesh Kumar was convicted under Section 18 of the NDPS Act for possessing 495 grams of opium (intermediate quantity) recovered from his house in Kashikewal village during a police raid on November 6, 2021. He was sentenced to 9 years rigorous imprisonment, a fine of Rs. 90,000, and an additional 1 year imprisonment in default of fine payment. The court found the prosecution case proved beyond reasonable doubt based on witness testimonies, seizure documentation, and a positive SFSL report confirming the opium's composition.
