The Appellant was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for twenty-five years and ordered to pay a fine of Tshs, 3,119,760,000. Aggrieved, the Appellant challenged the decision of the trial court. In the Memorandum of Appeal, he stated that the court erred in holding that there was no interference of chain of custody of drugs when the trial court itself held six times in the judgment that there had indeed been fraudulent interference of the chain of custody between the two dates. The also stated that there was no chronological documentation or paper trail of how the alleged drugs had been dealt with between Tunduma and Dar es Salaam. In addition, he stated that there was no evidence of drug trafficking and the relevant witnesses were not called by the prosecution.
