Judgment text as reported

Usama Ali VS State Ss. 302(b), 109, 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, abetment, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Recovery of pistol on the disclosure of accused---Not consequential---Accused was charged for committing murder of the son of complainant along with his two friends by firing---Recovery of pistol on the lead of accused/appellant from the house of his uncle on 28.09.2016 was merely a fake formality because from the same house on 18.09.2016 accused/appellant had allegedly got recovered his right shoe/sandal, and motor cycle used by him in the occurrence and it was not expected that police had not conducted a thorough search of said house so as to collect any other incriminating material, particularly when pistol had yet not been recovered---Thus, recovery was apparently planted upon the accused/appellant---Even otherwise when there was no direct evidence in the case and other circumstantial evidence had also been disbelieved, merely on the basis of recovery conviction could not be recorded nor sustained---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
