Judgment text as reported

IMRAN VS State Ss. 302(b), 324 & 34---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Accused were charged that they in furtherance of their common intention made firing upon complainant party, due to which one person died whereas other was injured---Admitted position was that no enmity whatsoever existed between the parties so as to tag the accused persons unnecessarily or falsely for a capital charge---Motive evidence was not adduced in support of crime tragedy because neither maternal nephew of complainant appeared as witness nor the Court was asked to summon him despite the fact he was living in the house of deceased---Complainant primarily while stating roles of both the accused persons supported the prosecution narrative including time, date and place of occurrence---Although when faced with cross-examination, complainant deposed certain facts which the defence claimed in its their favour but circumstances established that the prosecution had proved case against the accused persons beyond any shadow of reasonable doubts---However due to some mitigating factors, the death sentence awarded to one of the accused persons was altered to imprisonment for life---Appeal was dismissed with said modification in sentence.
