Section 25(1-B)(B) Arms Act | Conviction Unsustainable Without Mandatory Notification and Independent Witness Corroboration : CGHC

Chhattisgarh High Court sets aside conviction under the Arms Act, ruling that reliance solely on police testimony without compliance with Section 4 notification or independent witness corroboration violates due process. The judgment reinforces that procedural safeguards are non-negotiable for upholding convictions under special criminal statutes.
