Judgment & Decree
Brief facts giving rise to this petition are that on the report of the petitioner a case under sections 148, 302, 307/149, P.P.C. was registered against Khalid Mahmood, Abdur Razzaq etc. for the murders of Masood Ahmad, Muhammad Hanif and Imdad besides murderously assaulting 5 persons with fire‑arms.
2. It is stated that Khadim Hussain D.S.P. has maliciously and with an intent to destroy the case of the petitioner has twisted the story by holding Gulzar Ahmad a party man of the petitioner responsible for the murder of Masood Ahmad aforementioned. It is further stated that the opposite party in connivance with the said D.S.P. has tried to exonerate all the accused and instead held the petitioner's party as aggressor. Hence a direction is sought to be issued through this petition to the I.‑G. Police for re‑investigation of the case by some independent /honest and impartial responsible police officer of a high rank.
3. Admittedly, three investigations have also been held into the case and for this reason the trial of the cases registered as back as 1 23‑5‑1985 could not commence. The challans of both the cases have been filed in Court and any further investigation would cause more delay in the disposal of the case. Both the parties will be at liberty to produce all the evidence in support of their version before the trial Court and no useful purpose will be served by directing re‑investigation into the case at this stage. In consequence, the petition is dismissed. S.A. /M‑365/L Petition dismissed.
