Judgment text as reported

AQIL ZAMAN alias AQEEL VS State Ss. 302(b), 324 & 34---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Conduct of the complainant---Scope---Accused was charged that he along with his co-accused persons made firing upon the complainant party as a result brother of complainant was hit and died---Conduct of complainant was a strong barrier in his way for granting him a stamp of truth---If Court found that he made a supplementary statement, how it could be ignored that said portion of allegation had already been disbelieved---If, it was considered that there was no supplementary statement at all and the complaint was correctly recorded because it was read over to the complainant before he signed it, then the question arose that how deceased received second fire arm injury on his knee---In that situation, it would be a case of serious contradiction in medical and ocular account beside improvements made by complainant during trial to bring his testimony in line with medical evidence and when it was so, on that ground alone his statement was liable to be rejected---Circumstances established that the prosecution had not been able to prove its case against the accused beyond any shadow of doubt---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
