Judgment text as reported

Muhammad Dilawar VS State Extra-judicial confession---Scope---Extra-judicial confession is always considered a weak type of evidence and could be procured at any time during the investigation when there is no direct evidence available to the prosecution---Moreover, the legal worth of the extra-judicial confession too is almost equal to naught, keeping in view the natural course of events, human behaviors, conduct and probabilities, in ordinary course---Extra-judicial confession has never been considered sufficient for recording conviction on acapital charge unless it is strongly corroborated by tangible evidence coming from unimpeachable source.
