LAL MUHAMMAD VS State S. 302(b)---Criminal Procedure Code (V of 1898), S. 342---Qatl-i-amd---Appreciation of evidence---Defence plea---Scope---Accused was charged for committing murder of his wife and daughter by plying the dagger on the basis of suspicion that deceased had illicit relation with someone and the daughter was born out of said relation---Accused at the time of recording his statement under S. 342, Cr.P.C took the simple plea that allegation against him was false and he was not available at the time of incident and the dagger was foisted against him---Said defence at the belated stage was not helpful to the accused as during the evidence of all the eye-witnesses he had not taken the same defence nor he produced any defence evidence in that respect---Appeal was dismissed accordingly.
