IFTIKHAR AHMAD VS STATE. Ss.302(b), 427, 109, 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, causing damage or loss of fifty rupees or more through mischief, abetment, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Reappraisal of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Presence of eye-witnesses at the spot not proved---Accused-petitioner was charged that he along with his co-accused persons committed murder of the brother of complainant by firing---According to prosecution case, it was son of complainant who had earlier injured petitioner by making fire shots, therefore, under the circumstances, the complainant himself should have been the prime target of petitioner but the complainant who himself was present at the spot at the time of occurrence did not receive a single injury during the occurrence, whereas there was no motive with petitioner to commit murder of deceased---Therefore, the prosecution eye-witnesses were not present at the spot at the relevant time---Said fact had also created another dent in the prosecution story---Appeal against conviction was allowed.
