ABDUL WASAY VS State S. 302(b)---Qatl-i-amd---Reappraisal of evidence---Appeal against acquittal---Accused was charged for causing knife blows to the complainant and a witness but no medical evidence of the said injuries from a proper source was brought on the record---Investigation officer produced their medical certificates but the same were not considered and relied upon by the Trial Court to record conviction against the accused---Furthermore the complainant had also received injuries in the earlier round of occurrence (separately reported vide an FIR of the same date) and in absence of a specific medical report, it was difficult for the Trial Court to determine the injuries inflicted during the present/subsequent occurrence---As far as the other two acquitted co-accused persons were concerned, they were charged for giving kicks and fists blows to the complainant party, but the prosecution had also failed to prove the case against them---Petition for leave to appeal challenging acquittal of accused and co-accused persons was dismissed and leave was refused.
