Judgment & Decree
‑‑‑S.302/34‑‑‑Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Art.185(3)‑‑‑Conviction of accused was based upon same evidence which was found to be reliable and valid basis for conviction recorded against co‑accused‑‑‑No reason advanced to reject evidence produced by prosecution against accused‑‑‑Petition for leave to appeal dismissed. ZAFFAR HUSSAIN MIRZA, J.‑‑The petitioner in this jail petition was tried alongwith co‑accused Faiz Ahmad and convicted by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Rawalpindi, vide judgment, dated 13th January, 1982, under section 302/34, P.P.C. and was sentenced to imprisonment for life and fine etc. The appeal riled by the petitioner was dismissed by a learned Single Judge of the Lahore High Court, Rawalpindi Bench, Rawalpindi, vide judgment dated 19th January, 1987, whereby the conviction and sentence passed by the trial Court were maintained. The jail petition preferred by co‑accused convict Faiz Ahmad (Criminal Jail Petition for Leave to Appeal No.18‑R/1987) was considered by this Court and dismissed vide order, dated 27th June, 1987. I have perused the petition submitted by the present petitioner and the judgment of the High Court. I find that his conviction is based upon the same evidence which was found to be reliable and valid basis for the conviction recorded against the co‑accused Faiz Ahmad in the connected jail petition. After having considered the case of the present petitioner in the light of the order passed in the connected jail petition I am of the opinion that there is no reason to reject the evidence produced by the prosecution against the present petitioner. For the same reasons as recorded in the order of the disposed of connected petition, I would dismiss this petition as well. ALI HUSSAIN QAZILBASH, J.‑‑I agree. M.A.K./N‑198/S Petition dismissed.
