Judgment text as reported

Syed Sajjad Hussain Shah VS State. Discrepancies in evidence of witnesses---Scope---Human testimony is not expected to be devoid of variance, as individuals may have recalled and express facts differently, even when describing the same event---Law recognizes that such discrepancies are natural and, in the absence of material contradictions that undermine the prosecution's version of events, these cannot be treated as sufficient grounds for acquittal.
