Summary of Crl.A. No. 631/1997 The Supreme Court dismissed the State of Orissa's appeal on December 11, 2003. Raghunath Dixit had been convicted by the trial court under Section 21 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, and sentenced to 10 years rigorous imprisonment plus a fine of Rs. 1,00,000. The High Court acquitted him on appeal, and the Supreme Court upheld this acquittal, finding it was not perverse and therefore could not be interfered with.
