GUL ZARIN VS FAZAL KHALIQ Ss. 302(b) & 324---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 185(3)---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd---Petition for leave to appeal challenging acquittal---Contentions on behalf of prosecution that in the face of overwhelming evidence comprising of witnesses that included an injured to support a dying declaration, there was no occasion for the High Court to acquit the accused, blamed alongside the absconding co-accused for the crime in the backdrop of a motive over immovable property, resulting into the loss of two lives; that accused remained an absconder for over a quarter of a century with his accomplices still away from law, to finally earn an acquittal; that non-performance of autopsy on the dead, being a practice in line with local custom did not adversely reflect upon the prosecution case inasmuch as the homicidal deaths of both the deceased remained a common ground throughout----Supreme Court granted leave to consider the said contentions of the prosecution.
