Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD AYAZ VS State Ss. 302(b), 109 & 34---Qatl-i-amd, abetment, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Related and interested witness---Scope---Accused was charged for committing murder of the brother of complainant by firing---Allegedly, one of the eye-witnesses was interested witness and the case of prosecution was lacking independent corroboration---Mere relation of witness with the deceased was no ground to discard his testimony, if his evidence was found entirely independent and truthful, therefore, his testimony without looking for any other corroborative evidence would alone be sufficient to establish the charge---Legally, the evidence of related witness who was not found inimical and was confidence-inspiring would hardly need any corroboration---Circumstances established that the prosecution had succeeded in proving the charge against the accused through direct, circumstantial and medical evidence---Appeal being devoid of merits, was dismissed.
