Persons found in a Gambling House are presumed, by Law 6 of 1889, sec.5, to be there with the object of playing, and are liable to the penalty provided by sec.8, unless they rebut the presumption.
When one section of a Statute creates an offence and another the penalty for such offence, in a chargesheet averring such offence, it is unnecessary to refer to the latter section.
