Summary

The appellant was convicted under Section 25(1)(a) of the Arms Act for possessing unlicensed cartridges. The High Court upheld the two-year sentence but the Supreme Court reduced it to one year due to lack of admissible evidence connecting the appellant to dacoits. The appeal was dismissed, and the appellant was ordered to surrender to serve the reduced sentence.
