Judgment text as reported

Pervaiz alias Irfan VS State Ss. 302(b), 336-B, 338 & 201---anti-Terrorism act (XXVII of 1997), S. 7---Qanun-e-Shahadat (10 of 1984), art. 129(g)---Qatl-i-amd, causing hurt with a corrosive substance, 'isqat-i-haml', causing disappearance of evidence of an offence or giving false information to screen an offender, act of terrorism---appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Withholding material evidence---Effect---accused was charged for committing murder of his wife/daughter of complainant along with her unborn child by causing hurt with corrosive substance---Prosecution claimed that burn injuries were caused on the person of the deceased on 08.07.2015, while the first medical report available on record was dated 10.07.2015, after a delay of two days---Complainant deposed that the deceased was taken to hospital, where the doctor refused to provide treatment to her, so the deceased, in then injured condition, was taken back to the house of the appellant, whereas son-in-law of complainant testified that doctor gave some emergency treatment and asked to take her home, thus, they brought victim to home---Not only was the deposition of son-in-law of complainant contradictory to the complainant, but neither said doctor was made a witness in this case to prove the factum of medical treatment of the deceased in injured condition, nor was the record of said clinic/hospital brought on record, which at once attracted illustration (g) of article 129 of the Qanun-e-Shahadat, 1984, in-so-far as had the prosecution produced said person and material, the same would not have supported the prosecution case---appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
