Abstract

Convicting the accused for the misdemeanor of drilling a well within a forests property without authorization based on his confession in the report of water and forests office, which was not challenged. In addition the fact of not discussing the introduced documents by the defendant means they are implicitly excluded after the court established their irrelevance to the subject of the offense.
