Ashraf VS State Ss. 302(b) & 324---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Co-accused was acquitted on same set of evidence---Effect---Accused was charged for committing murder of the son of complainant and causing firearm injures to another person---Both the eye-witnesses claimed that the appellant and the acquitted co-accused made firing upon the deceased---Trial Court, without giving any sufficient reason, convicted the appellant and acquitted the co-accused in the same judgment---Prosecution produced the same set of evidence against the appellant as well as the acquitted co-accused and the evidence produced by the prosecution was disbelieved to the extent that acquitted co-accused---If a set of evidence was disbelieved to the extent of some accused, the same could not be believed to the extent of remaining accused facing the same trial without there being any independent and strong corroboration, which was lacking---Circumstances established that the prosecution had miserably failed to establish the culpability of the appellant in the instant case---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
