Judgment text as reported

Citation Name: 2024 MLD 2001 QUETTA-HIGH-COURT-BALOCHISTANBookmark this Case Muhammad Ilyas VS State Last seen evidence---Scope---Such evidence stands for an event in which the slain person is seen last time alive in the company of an accused---Though the evidence of last seen in itself is generally regarded as weak in nature, but there is no legal impediment to making it the basis for awarding conviction if it is corroborated by some other source of unimpeachable character---Evidence of last seen qualifies for acceptance if it fits into the criteria of the proximity of time and distance, according to which the time and distance between the event of last seen and death of the deceased must not be too long---Lesser the duration and distance between the event of last seen and the homicidal death of the victim, the stronger such evidence is.
