R v Pink

The case of R v Pink involved the appellant, who was charged with attempting to possess a marketable quantity of unlawfully imported border controlled drugs. The case was heard in the Supreme Court of Victoria. The central issue was whether the appellant had attempted to possess a quantity of drugs that could be considered "marketable" under the relevant legislation.

The court examined the definition of a "marketable quantity" and whether the amount in question could be considered such. The court also considered the intent of the appellant and whether there was sufficient evidence to establish an attempt to possess the drugs. The appellant argued that the quantity of drugs was not marketable and that there was no evidence of an attempt to possess them.

The court found that the quantity of drugs was indeed marketable, and the evidence was sufficient to establish an attempt to possess them. The court rejected the appellant's arguments and held that the charges were proven beyond reasonable doubt. The court sentenced the appellant to a full-time custodial sentence. In a subsequent decision, the court re-sentenced the appellant, but the details of the re-sentencing are not included in the provided text.
