No. 1147/2007) On October 6, 2010, the Supreme Court dismissed Punjab's criminal appeal challenging the High Court's acquittal of Malkiat Singh and others in an Opium Act case. The trial court had sentenced the respondents to 3 years rigorous imprisonment under Section 9 of the Opium Act for an alleged offense from 1983, but the High Court acquitted them. The Supreme Court found no grounds to interfere with the acquittal and upheld it. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
