| Decision |
The Lahore High Court, presided over by Justice Muhammad Waheed Khan, dismissed the criminal revision petition filed by Ali Ahmad against the order of the Additional Sessions Judge, Lahore. The court found that the petitioner had not provided sufficient evidence to justify summoning the accused for trial. The court noted inconsistencies in the petitioner's claims and highlighted that the medical evidence contradicted the allegations made in the FIR. The court emphasized that there was no material available to support the claims of murder against the accused, leading to the dismissal of the private complaint. |
| Summary |
In the case of Ali Ahmad vs. Ahmad Faraz Alias Moon, the Lahore High Court dealt with a criminal revision petition concerning allegations of murder under Sections 302 and 34 of the Pakistan Penal Code. The petitioner, Ali Ahmad, alleged that his stepmother, Mst. Razia Bibi, along with others, murdered his father. The court found that the FIR was based on false claims, as a thorough investigation revealed no substantial evidence supporting the allegations. The medical report indicated that the cause of death was cardiac arrest, not foul play. The court underscored the importance of credible evidence in criminal proceedings and the necessity of a coherent narrative from the complainant. The ruling reinforces the legal principle that mere allegations without substantial proof cannot suffice to summon accused individuals for trial, thereby upholding the integrity of the judicial process. |
