Judgment text as reported

Muhammad Mohsan VS State Ss. 302(b), 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Unnatural conduct of eye-witnesses---Accused was charged for committing murder of the son of complainant by firing---Complainant and eye-witness were real father and paternal uncle of deceased respectively, therefore, they could be said to be richly interested witnesses as their conduct was highly unnatural---If said witnesses were present at the spot at the relevant time, despite appellant being armed with firearm weapon, they could have caught hold of the appellant in their captivity but they neither made any serious effort to save the life of the deceased nor tried to apprehend the appellant rather they stood like silent spectators and gave free hand to the appellant to cause firearm injuries to their kith and kin---Thus, that conduct of both the eye-witnesses was highly unnatural, hence, their presence at the spot was highly doubtful and their testimony was not worthy of reliance---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
