Judgment text as reported

AMANULLAH VS State S. 302(b)--- Qatl-i-amd--- Reappraisal of evidence---Recovery of weapon of offence disbelieved and inconsequential---Sentence of imprisonment justified---Admittedly the crime empties and the weapon of offence were sent to the office of Forensic Science Laboratory together, which made the recovery doubtful---Such recovery was rightly disbelieved by the High Court---So far as the quantum of punishment was concerned, keeping in view the fact that recovery was disbelieved, the High Court had already taken a lenient view and converted the sentence of death into imprisonment for life to meet the ends of justice, hence, it left no room for the Supreme Court for further deliberation on such score---Appeal was dismissed.
