SAQIB VS STATE S. 302(b)---Qatl-i-amd---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Delay in lodging the FIR---Accused was charged for committing murder of the son of complainant by firing---Record showed that in the statement of eye-witness/brother of complainant it was mentioned that when the victim then injured was lifted from the place of the occurrence, he was initially taken to the Police Station from where he was shifted to the hospital---Keeping in view the fact that the injured victim disclosed to son-in-law of complainant that the appellant fired at him, it followed that the victim in injured condition was in a position to speak sensibly---Victim should have lodged the report in Police Station---According to the statement of Medical Officer, when the injured victim was brought to the hospital, he was found unconscious---In the evidence it was stated that while on the way to the hospital, some mechanical defect occurred in the private vehicle in which victim was lying; that injured victim was thus shifted to another vehicle; that on the way to the hospital, the condition of the injured victim grew from bad to worse, leading to his unconsciousness and ultimately his death---In short, there was a proper opportunity for the victim to make report at the Police Station---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
