Judgment text as reported

Syed WAJID ALI SHAH VS State art.150---Question by party to his own witness---Hostile witness---Scope---Nevertheless, in every case when a request was made for cross-examining a prosecution witness after declaring him hostile, it was under the discretion of the Trial Court to allow or disallow such a request---article 150 of the Qanun-e-Shahadat, 1984, laid down that the Court might, in its discretion, permit a person who called a witness to put any question to him which might be put in cross-examination by the adverse party---No doubt, the credit of a witness could be impeached by the adverse party but if a party intended to impeach his own witness, the same could only be done with the permission of the Court.
