    Case Summary: 573/2018 Court Decision: The appellate court acquitted appellant Mubarik of charges under Section 3/25 of the Arms Act, finding that the prosecution failed to properly establish the prosecution sanction required for conviction. The court held that while a country-made pistol and cartridges were recovered from Mubarik's possession, the sanction for prosecution was not properly proved—the sanctioning authority was not examined, and the sanction document appeared to have been issued without application of mind. Co-appellant Shabba remained absconding and was declared a fugitive. Key Reasoning: The court applied precedent from *Ram Kishan v. State of Rajasthan* (2013), establishing that absent proper prosecution sanction with evidence of the sanctioning authority's application of mind, conviction under Section 3/25 Arms Act cannot be sustained, despite recovery of illegal firearms.
