Judgment text as reported

Shahid alias Shahidi VS State Ss. 302(b), 109 & 34---Qatl-i-amd, abetment, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Recovery of weapon of offence on the lead of accused---Accused were charged for committing murder of the mother of complainant by firing---According to the prosecution case the accused/appellant had succeeded in fleeing away from the place of occurrence along with crime weapon and then on his arrest he was said to have got recovered the crime weapon i.e. .30 bore pistol from an iron box lying in a room of his residential house---Firstly, it was not believable that an accused having committed a serious crime like murder and successfully managing escape along with crime weapon, would keep it safe for its subsequent recovery and use against him as evidence---After the arrest of accused/appellant on 24.10.2019 the crime weapon i.e. pistol .30 bore was shown recovered on his lead and the Forensic Science Agency Report had been received in the positive but the fact remained that when the ocular account was disbelieved such recovery would not be sufficient for recording conviction of an accused on capital charge, because that type of corroborative evidence was always taken into consideration along with direct evidence---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
