Judgment text as reported

Muhammad Irfan alias Pomi VS State Ss. 302(b), 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Co-accused acquitted on the basis of same set of evidence---No overt act attributed to acquitted co-accused---Effect---Accused was charged that he along with his co-accused persons committed murder of the brother of complainant by firing---It was alleged by defence that co-accused persons stood acquitted by Trial Court in the same trial while disbelieving the same evidence which rendered the credibility of prosecution evidence seriously doubtful even against the appellant---Record showed that no overt act was attributed to the acquitted co-accused persons of the appellant---Thus, the acquittal of co-accused, in the circumstances of the case, was not sufficient to discredit the overwhelming prosecution evidence available against the appellant---Circumstances established that the prosecution otherwise proved its case beyond any shadow of doubt, however, due to some mitigating circumstances, death sentence was altered to imprisonment for life---With said modification in sentence, appeal against conviction was dismissed, in circumstances.
