HALEEM KHAN VS State Ss. 302(b) & 324---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd---Appreciation of evidence---Solitary statement of injured/eye-witness---Scope---Accused was charged for committing murder of his brother, his wife and nephew---Injured witness had consistently adhered to the prosecution version word by word and fully supported the prosecution case giving all necessary details---Said witness faithfully deposed what was witnessed by him and his version could not be impeached or shattered despite lengthy cross-examination---Said witness described the role played by the accused in the commission of the offence and lent full strength to the prosecution story---No doubt it was a case of solitary witness but the solitary witness itself was not a demerit or disqualification as could call for its repudiation, when otherwise it rang true and inspired confidence---Circumstance established that the prosecution had successfully proved its case against the accused beyond reasonable doubt---Appeal against conviction was dismissed accordingly.
