Clause 6

A police officer or officer of customs may seize in any place any scheduled substance in respect of which he has reason to believe an offence under this Act has been committed, and together with such substance any receptacle, package, document or other article which may have been used in connection with such offence.

Where any scheduled substance is seized under subsection (1) of this section but the person who committed the offence in connection therewith is not known or cannot be found, such substance together with such other articles which have been seized shall be deemed to be forfeited at the expiration of one month from the date of seizure unless a claim in writing thereto is made before that date by any person asserting to be the owner.

The court before which a person is charged with an offence under section 3 of this Act with respect to any scheduled substance may, whether such person is convicted or not, order such substance which has been found in his possession to be forfeited.

Any scheduled substance which is forfeited or deemed to be forfeited under this section shall be disposed of in such manner as the Minister may generally or specially direct.
