The background of the occurrence allegedly is that Mst. Kalsoom Akhtar was sister of Ziafat Pinah appellant as well as sister-in-law of Muhammad Sher deceased. The Nikah of Kalsoom Akhtar was solemnized with Mumtaz Ali appellant. Before Rukhsati could take place, Muhammad Sher deceased developed illicit relations with her who refused to marry 'Mumtaz Ali appellant and was therefore, murdered and on 25-8-1975 a case under section 302/34, P.P.

During investigation Mumtaz Ali, Ghulam Ali and Amir Abdullah were found innocent and Ziafat Pinah alone was challaned who too was acquitted in the year 1978. Since Muhammad Sher deceased paramour of Mst. Kalsoom Akhtar had also been pursuing the case of her murder therefore, the appellants and the acquitted accused were nursing grudge against him hence this murder. 5.

Ghulam Muhammad accordingly contacted Muhammad Sher deceased in Sargodha who told him that his tractor and thrasher were in Chak No. 138/S. B. And when the same were spared he would oblige the complainant. The deceased then asked Ghulam Muhammad P.W. 23 to accompany him to Chak No. 138/S.B. Ghulam Muhammad P.W. Accompanied him in his car. He sat on the rear seat and Muhammad Sher drove it. When the car reached near the place of occurrence, there was a barrier, where a light blue car with its bonnet lifted upwards was already parked.

They raised the plea of false implication, due to enmity. Ziafat Pinah also raised plea of alibi that at the time of occurrence he was in India.

It further disbelieved testimony of Abdullah Khan P.W. 13 and Muhammad Sarwar P.W. 19 regarding Extra-Judicial Confession made by Ziafat Pinah and Khalid Hayat in the shape of proclamation that they had killed the deceased. While believing Ghulam Hussain P.W. 3, to the extent of Ziafat Pinah, recoveries of the crime empties from the spot, recoveries of gun from the Ziafat Pinah, Forensic Science Laboratory Report to the extent of Ziafat Pinah and the circumstances relatable to the conduct of Ziafat Pinah told by Muhammad Nawaz P.N. 8 and Sardar Muhammad P.W. 9 convicted and sentenced him as stated above. So far as Mumtaz Ali is concerned the trial Court though disbelieved the witnesses of the alleged abetment namely, Mukhtar Ahmad P.W. 11 and Sikandar Hayat P.W. 12 yet convicted him on the strength of circumstances in the form of his departure to India his stay at Kabir Hotel Dehli. Telegram Exh. P.N. Sent to him from Pakistan "come soon back", recovery of cash memo. Issued by the Kabir Hotel Manager, the conduct of Mumtaz Ali in approaching Muhammad Nawaz P.W. 8 and Sardar Muhammad P.W. 9 for helping him and Ziafat Pinah in their illegal return to Pakistan. 14. The learned counsel for the convict appellant contended that prosecution has failed to prove its case against the appellants beyond treasonable doubt; that the learned trial Court after having disbelieved 3/4of the prosecution story and its evidence, should not have believed Ghulam Muhammad P.W. 23 to the extent of Ziafat, Pinah particularly when his statement was in conflict with medic evidence; that the guns and the rime empties were sent together to the Forensic Science Laboratory, therefore, the possibility that empties were prepared by firing live cartridges from these guns by the Police itself and then sent to the laboratory cannot be excluded; that exit entry certificate P.W. 22/F was not admissible in evidence; that Muhammad Nawaz and Sardar Muhammad are not reliable witnesses and that circumstances relied upon by the trial Court do not connect the appellants with the murder and do not prove abetment within the definition of section 107, P.P. C. It may be noted that the learned counsel for the convict appellants have not pressed the plea of alibi of Ziafat Pinah before us. 15. While arguing connected appeal against acquittal, the learned A.A.-G, submitted that prosecution had successfully brought home the charge of murder to Khalid Hayat and abetment thereof to Ahmad Khan, Muratab Ali and Ghulam Ali acquitted accused; that the five accused were acquitted without legal and factual justification; that the reasons given by the trial Court for the acquittal of the co-accused were flimsy and far fetched and that Mukhtar Ahmad P. W. 11, Sikandar Ali P.W. 12. Abdullah Khan P.W. 13, Muhammad Sarwar P.W. 19 are quite independent witnesses and they have wrongly been disbelieved by the trial Court. The learned counsel appearing for the State in the Murder Reference and the appeal filed by Ziafat Pinah and Mumtaz Ali has supported the learned A.A.-G. In order to bring home guilt to the accused, the prosecution produced 34 witnesses and mass of documents in disproof of the plea of alibi raised by Ziafat Pinah and Mumtaz Ali appellants and relied on various categories of evidence in proof of the charges. To prove charge under section 302/34, P. P. C., against Ziafat Pinah appellant, Khalid Hayat and Ahmad Bakhsh acquitted accused, the prosecution relied on the following categories of evidence:- (1)Ocular evidence furnished by Ghulam Muhammad P.W. 23 and Saadullah P.W. 24. Saadullah has been disbelieved by the trial Court. (2)Identification parade proceedings Exhs. P.C. And P.D. Proved by Chaudhry Irshad Ahmad, M. I. C. P.W. 2 and Chaudhry Ghulam Nabi, M.I.C., P.W. 20. It may be noted that the identification tests have not been relied upon by the trial Court. (3)Extra-judicial confession by Ziafat Pinah and Khalid Hayat before Mukhtar Ahmad P.W. 11, Abdullah P.W. 13 and Muhammad Sarwar P. W. 19. It may be noted that Saadullah P. W. 24, the identifications test P. C. And P. D. And witnesses of extra-judicial confession have not been believed and acted upon by the trial Court.th

(6)Circumstantial evidence in the form of motive, suspicious conduct of Ziafat Pinah an his approaching Muhammad Nawaz P.W. 8 and Sardar Muhammad P.

(i)Direct evidence supported by Mukthar Ahmad P.W. 11 and Sikandar Hayat P.W. 12. It may be mentioned here that both o them have been disbelieved by the trial Court; (ii)Circumstantial evidence in the shape of: (a)Motive supported by Muhammad Nawaz P.W. 21. (b)Suspecious conduct of Mumtaz Ali of going to India on a mission supported by Muhammad Nawaz P.W. 8 and Sardar Muhammad P. W. 9. (c)His presence in Kabir Hotel, Dehli India on the day of occurrence and sending of telegram Exh. P.N. By Mir Muhammad Nawaz to him asking him to come back soon and the recovery of the cash memo. Of Kabir Hotel, Dehli from him. 16. The State filed appeal against acquittal against Ahmad Bakhsh, Khalid Hayat, Ahmad Khan. Ghulam Ali and Muratab Ali. The High Court has dismissed the appeal to the extent of Ahmad Bakhsh who was charged under 'section 302/34, P.P.C. At limine stage and notice was given to the others. 17. As appeal against acquittal filed by the State has already been admitted to examine the reasons given by the trial Court for the acquittal of Khalid Hayat, charged under section 302/34, P.P.C. And Ahmad Bakhsh, Ghulam Ali and Muratab Ali charged under section 302/109, P.P. C., and the appeal against conviction of Ziafat Pinah and Mumtaz Ali and proceedings are also before us for the confirmation of the sentence of death of Ziafat Pinah, so we have examined entire evidence oral as well as documentary on the file in the light of the guiding principles laid down by superior Courts which have been consistently followed by this Court in justifying interference with the judgments of conviction and acquittal. We have also attended to the elaborate argument advanced by the learned counsel for the parties with utmost care. In the circumstances of the case, we consider it appropriate to discuss prosecution case first in order to arrive at an independent findings as to the truth or falsity of the prosecution case and credibility of the` prosecution witnesses more particularly the alleged eye-witnesses, the witnesses of extra-judicial Confession and the recovery of incriminating articles and the witnesses of the alleged abetment. 18. Starting from the foundation of the prosecution case i. e. F. I. R. We find that by 12-30 noon on 10- 5-1980 when the F.I.R. Was recorded, the names of the culprits were not known; that only descriptions of the two culprits were given in the F.I.R., that the number of the culprits who were seen at the place of occurrence was two and that Mumtaz Ali, Ziafat Pinah, Muratab Ali and Ghulam Ali were suspected as culprits who either killed Muhammad Sher or got him killed. On careful examination of the F.I.R. Which was lodged by Muhammad Nawaz after having visited the spot and talked to the three eye-witnesses, it seems to us that the prosecution case at the initial stage was that two of Muhammad Sher by firing render any substantial of the guilt/innocence of the culprits is to be judged in relation to the facts and circumstances established in evidence at the trial. 19. This brings us to the abetment part of the prosecution version. The allegations are that 11/12 days before the murder. Mumtaz Ali appellant, Ghulam Ali, Muratab Ali and Ahmad Khan acquitted

accused had instigated Ziafat Pinah appellant, Khalid Hayat and Ahmad Bakhsh acquitted accused to commit the murder of Muhammad Sher and that it was in pursuance of this instigation that Ziafat Pinah, Ahmad Bakhsh and Khalid Hayat allegedly had gunned down Muhammad Sher. There are two witnesses namely, Mukhtar Ahmad P.W. 11 and Sikandar Hayat P.W. 12 of the alleged abetment. P.W. 11 has made a vague statement that while present in room No. 66, Old Hostel of Law College, Lahore, Ziafat Pinah, Muratab Ali, Ghulam Ali and Mumtaz Ali had deliberated the question of doing away with somebody. He explained that their plan was that Ziafat Pinah and Mumtaz Ali would leave for India. Ghulam Ali and Muratab Ali would manage their arrest by the Police in connection with some lawlessness or commission of an offence. The witness stated that 5/6 days, thereafter Ziafat Pinah came in Room No. 66 to visit Shaukat Ali. He expressed the intention to kill the relative of him living in Sargodha. The prosecution case is that on both occasions Safdar Ali and Nazir Ali were present. Sikandar Hayat P.W. 12 stated that 11/12 days before the murder of Muhammad Sher, Mumtaz Ali appellant came at his house in Chak No. 130/N.B. And took him to the house of his grandfather Ahmad Khan accused situated in Civil Lines, Sargodha where, Ahmad Khan, Ziafat Pinah, Muratab Ali and Ghulam Ali and Khalid Hayat were already present. Ahmad Khan told him that Muhammad Sher was their enemy he should be killed and that he would bear all the expenses of litigation. Ahmad Khan then directed Ghulam Ali and Muratab Ali to follow Muhammad Sher at Lahore. Ziafat Pinah and Khalid Hayat were asked by him to look for Muhammad Sher at Sargodha. Ahmad Khan told Mumtaz Ali to take care of the litigation that would…
