Judgment text as reported

YASIR PARVEZ VS State Ss. 302(b), 396 & 412---Qatl-i-amd, dacoity with murder, dishonestly receiving property stolen in the commission of dacoity---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Unnatural conduct of the complainant---Accused were charged for committing murder of the brother of complainant and injured the complainant during dacoity---Bare reading of the story as narrated in the complaint reflected that complainant and his brother were going back to their home after taking cash from a bank, and were vividly alert enough to notice being chased by accused persons---During the course of cross-examination, complainant stated that the whole area from the bank towards their home was a populated one and police office was on the way---Despite that, as per own showing of complainant during cross-examination, they did not make any attempt to report the matter to police---Even no attempt was shown to have been made by complainant and his brother to avoid being chased by accused persons by taking shelter at any safe place on the way---Such conduct shown by complainant was against natural human behavior---Circumstances established that the prosecution failed to prove its case against accused persons beyond reasonable shadow of doubt---Appeal against the conviction was allowed accordingly.
