The court rules that the raiding officer’s testimony was doubtful and the conviction was unsafe.

Feroz Mohamed walked free from the Court of Appeal today after he was acquitted of drug trafficking.

In the ruling, Vazeer held that Feroz’s conviction for the offences was unsafe because the prosecution’s case was based on the raiding officer’s testimony, which was doubtful, and his testimony cast suspicion on his credibility as to what actually transpired on that day.On Nov 26, 2021, the High Court convicted Feroz on two charges of trafficking cannabis and sentenced him to death.

Afifuddin submitted three issues before the court today, including the failure of the High Court judge to consider the credibility of a police officer who testified.
