Judgment text as reported

Aman Ullah VS State S. 9(c)---Possession of narcotic substances---Appreciation of evidence---Benefit of doubt---Recovery witness not making any statement before court about details of recovery---Prosecution case was that 12-kilogram charas was recovered from the vehicle driven by the accused-appellant---According to the prosecution case, the prosecution witness Head Constable/driver had also witnessed the recovery from the appellant, however, when said Police Official got his statement recorded before the Trial Court, he did not mention anything regarding the recovery of any narcotic substance from the appellant nor even named the appellant---Prosecutor concerned also did not move any application for the re-examination of said witness in that regard---In this manner, when said witness himself never stated that he had witnessed any recovery of any narcotic substance from the appellant, then such fact could not be presumed on its own---Failure of the said prosecution witness to make any statement before the Trial Court regarding the details of the recovery of "Charas" from the appellant was in itself sufficient to create a doubt in the whole of the prosecution case---Appeal against conviction was allowed, in circumstances.
