Judgment text as reported

Wishal Munawar VS State S. 302(b)---Qatl-i-amd---Appreciation of evidence---Delay of eight hours and fifty minutes in lodging the FIR---Consequential---Accused was charged for committing murder of paternal nephew of the complainant by firing---Record showed that the incident took place on 12.08.2019 at about 02.00 pm but the same was reported to the police at 10.50 pm with an un-explained delay of eight hours and fifty minutes---Nothing had been brought on record by the prosecution to justify such delay, in particular, when the distance between the place of occurrence and police station was just four kilometers---Thus, inference could be drawn that the FIR was lodged after due deliberation, consultation and maneuvering the prosecution witnesses---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
