Haq Nawaz VS State Ss. 302(b) & 34---Qatl-i-amd, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Motive not proved---Accused were charged for committing murder of the son of complainant by firing---According to the prosecution case, the motive behind the occurrence was that on the night before the occurrence, a cow of one "Mr. M" was stolen and the foot trackers led the footprints of the accused towards a Chak, in which one "I" was residing, who had enmity of murders with the complainant party---Said "I" told "Mr. M" that his cow was stolen by deceased---Said "Mr. M" and appellant etc. had close friendship with each other and due to the said grudge, the occurrence was committed by the appellant and his co-accused---It was evident that cow of the appellant was not stolen in this case rather the cow of one "Mr. M" was stolen---Complainant had conceded that appellant had no relationship with "Mr. M"---Allegedly, appellant was a foot-tracker, who tried to trace out the accused responsible for the theft of the cow of "Mr. M", therefore, he had falsely been implicated in this case---As appellant was having no personal grudge or enmity against deceased, therefore, he had no reason to commit the occurrence---Thus, the prosecution had failed to prove any motive against the appellant---Circumstances established that the prosecution failed to prove its case to the extent of appellant beyond the shadow of doubt---Appeal against conviction was accordingly allowed.
