Muhammad Arshad VS State Ss. 302(b), 364, 109, 148 & 149---Qatl-i-amd, kidnapping and abducting a person in order to murder, abetment, rioting armed with deadly weapons, unlawful assembly---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Unnatural conduct of assailants---Accused were charged for committing murder of the son of complainant after kidnapping him---According to prosecution story, son of complainant was abducted by the accused persons on 07.08.2014 and accused persons started beating him in their house at Fajar time on 12.08.2014 when complainant and his witnesses who claimed to have reached at the spot---However, it would be hard to believe that assailants would have waited for arrival of witnesses so as to enable them to witness the occurrence and on their arrival they started causing injuries on the person of deceased---Such behavior on the part of assailants was not in consonance with the natural human behavior and it could very conveniently be inferred that witnesses were not present at the spot and they had merely been introduced as witnesses of ocular account after due deliberations and consultation---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
