Judgment text as reported

ASHIQUE ALI VS State Ss. 302(b) & 34---Qatl-i-amd, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Non-recovery of weapon of offence---Effect---Accused were charged for committing murder of the father of complainant by firing---Allegedly, crime weapons used by the accused at the time of offence were not recovered from them, therefore, the accused could not be connected with the murder of deceased---Said contention of defence had no force in view of that, all the prosecution witnesses supported the case of prosecution by deposing that the accused directly fired from their pistols which hit the deceased---Direct evidence of witnesses was further corroborated by medical evidence as the doctor who examined the deceased had found four separate firearm injuries on the person of the deceased with entry and exit wounds---Where charge was proved by other direct, natural and confidence inspiring evidence, then non-recovery of crime weapon was not fatal to prosecution case---Circumstances established that the prosecution had proved its case against the accused beyond a reasonable doubt---Appeal against conviction was dismissed accordingly.
