Judgment text as reported

GUL RAHMAN VS STATE Ss. 302(b), 337-a(i), 337-a(ii), 337-a(iii) & 337-L(2)---Qatl-i-amd, causing shajjah-i-khafifah, shajjah-i-mudihah, shajjah-i-hashimah, causing hurt---Appreciation of evidence---Related and interested witnesses, evidence of---Reliance---Scope--- Accused-appellants were charged for committing murder of the father of complainant and causing injuries to the complainant and his brother through sticks and pickaxe blows--- Complainant and other alleged eye-witness were real sons of the deceased--- Likewise, injured witness was close relative of complainant-party--- However, mere relationship between witnesses and deceased would not be sufficient to damage their evidence altogether--- Relationship by itself is no ground to discard and discredit testimony of eye-witnesses unless they are shown to be partisan and interested witnesses--- If it is established on record that a witness has a motive to implicate an accused person falsely in a case, then in such situation independent corroboration may be sought from other evidence--- In the present case, there was nothing on record to suggest any previous blood feud or other bitterness of serious nature between the parties, except previous motive of land dispute, hence, the eye-witnesses had no motive for false implication of present appellants--- Appeal against conviction was dismissed, in circumstances.
