Judgment text as reported

Said rehman VS State Ss. 302(b), 324, 427, 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, attempt to commit qatl-i-amd, mischief causing damage to the amount of fifty rupees, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Absconsion of the accused---Inconsequential---Accused were charged for committing murder of three brothers of the complainant by firing---Incident occurred in the year 2016, but the appellants were arrested in the year 2017 and 2018 respectively---Accused could not give any plausible explanation for their abscondance, but that alone would not be sufficient to hold them responsible for the murders of the deceased---Eye-witness failed to convince their presence on the spot and the witnesses did not successfully face searching cross-examination, not only in respect of the manner in which the incident occurred, but also in respect of the manner in which the dead bodies were shifted and the matter was reported---When the witnesses lost their credibility, then the unexplained abscondance would hardly be a ground for holding the appellants guilty---Circumstances established that the prosecution failed to prove its case against the accused---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
