It is further contended that there was no motive against the applicant and the deceased was a notorious person and he was having criminal history against him. It is further contended that none had seen the alleged incident and relative of first informant has been made as eye-witness regarding occurrence who would be a chance witness and after six days of the alleged occurrence he was allegedly arrested by the police and false recovery of 315 bore was shown from the possession of applicant wherein he has stated that it was used and committed murder and witnesses by the police are shown in Fard Baramadgi, therefore, recovery of country made pistol is not liable to be believed.
