Muhammad Dilawar VS State Ss. 302(b), 201 & 34---Qatl-i-amd, causing disappearance of evidence of offence or giving false information to screen offenders, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Delay of 16-days in lodging the FIR---Consequential---Accused were charged for committing murder of the brother of complainant---Complainant submitted written complaint before the police on the basis of which FIR was chalked out stating therein that on 01.11.2019, his brother/deceased in the company of his wife went to attend amarriage ceremony but he did not come back till 16.11.2019 and they searched for him but in vain---Occurrence took place on 01.11.2019 whereas the matter was reported to the police on 16.11.2019, after the lapse of 16 day of missing of his brother---Therefore, such inordinate delay in setting the machinery of law in motion spoke volumes against the veracity of prosecution version---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
