Haroon VS State Ss. 302(b) & 34---Qatl-i-amd, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Medical evidence---Accused were charged for committing murder of the brother of the complainant by strangulation---Admittedly the medical evidence and post mortem report fully supported the eye-witness/prosecution evidence that the deceased died from strangulation---However the medical evidence could not indicate who actually caused the injuries---Chemical report found a chemical in the blood of the deceased however that chemical could have been administered by the deceased himself who had recently been staying with the complainant and he was unwell---No evidence was present to show that said chemical which was found in the blood of the deceased caused his death or was administered by anyone but himself and in fact as per the medical evidence he died in effect on account of strangulation as opposed to poisoning---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
