Judgment text as reported

ABDUL QADIR VS SPECIAL JUDGE (CUSTOMS AND TAXATION) AT KARACHI S. 233---Separate charges for distinct offences---Object---Scope---Exception of the general rule expressed in S. 233, Cr.P.C., is a wholesome rule and the object of said section is to give a fair trial to the accused and not to bring about a situation which might cause the accused prejudice or embarrassment in defending himself in respect of the charge or charges brought against him---Exceptions in the said provision of law are also beneficial for the prosecution and accused, both; as they have to deal only one trial, hence, the Legislature recognizes that under certain circumstances, the accused could be tried in respect of more than one offences in the same trial---Intention of Legislature is not limited to facilitate the accused and to save him from embarrassment but it would avoid the multiplicity of trial.
