Citation Name: 2024 MLD 984 QUETTA-HIGH-COURT-BALOCHISTANBookmark this Case Nadir VS State Ss. 302(b), 147, 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, rioting, rioting armed with deadly weapon, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Related witnesses, evidence of---Reliance---Accused were charged for committing murder of the brother of the complainant by firing---Though the defence had taken specific plea of false implication of accused persons through interested witnesses, but in a heinous crime the evidence of related witnesses who were not found inimical and were confidence-inspiring would hardly need any corroboration rather the related witnesses some times, particularly in murder cases, might be found more reliable, because they, on account of their relationship with the deceased, would not let go the real culprit or substitute an innocent person for him---Testimonies of witnesses could not be disbelieved solely on the ground that they were in relation with the deceased or complainant rather the Court had to see the truthfulness and credibility of such witnesses---Even otherwise, though the two eyewitnesses admitted that they were the relatives of complainant party, but their close relation with each other had not been established---Besides the most important and independent witness of the prosecution was the Rickshaw Driver who had absolutely no relation at all with the complainant party and being an independent witness he fully corroborated the statements of remaining witnesses and the defence had failed to bring any ill-will or ulterior motives on the part of Rickshaw Driver/witness with regard to their false implication---Appeal against conviction was dismissed, in circumstances.
