Sumit Kumar vs The State Of Tamilnadu on 5 October, 2015
5. Mr.T.R.Ravi, learned counsel relied upon the judgment in Drugs Inspector v. Modern Drugs, Hyderabad, (1982 LW (Crl) 108) and contended that each of the accused should have been furnished with the sample for the purpose of challenge before the Central Laboratory. First of all, the above said case relates to an appeal from conviction imposed by the trial Court. That apart, in that case both Modern Drugs, Hyderabad, the manufacturer, and Sham Agencies (A-4), which was selling the drugs, were made as accused. In that context this Court held that the samples should have been given to each of the contesting firms.
