MUHAMMAD NAWAZ VS State Ss. 34, 148, 149, 302(b) & 302(c)---Qatl-i-amd---Multiple assailants---Common intention or common object---Any judgment which concludes that the offence falling under Section 302(b), P.P.C. was committed in furtherance of common intention or common object but the sentence is inflicted on the basis of individual liability, the same would be squarely in defiance of the intent and spirit of law on the subject---Act of each individual, if committed in furtherance of the common object, the facts are to be dealt conjointly to arrive at a conclusion in the spirit of law---Where the accused persons and co-accused are specifically charged for having committed the crime in furtherance of their common object, the Trial Court ought to give a definite finding regarding the applicability of Sections 302, 148 and 149, P.P.C. to the co-accused qua the charge of murder.
