Heard both the sides, learned counsel for the accused-appellant has contended that almost all the prosecution witnesses have become hostile and nothing positive has been narrated by them despite the learned trial court has convicted and sentenced the accused-appellant and the findings of learned trial court are based on conjectures, which are not at all sustainable, so the appeal of the accused-appellant may be accepted and the findings of the learned trial court may be quashed. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has argued that there is no wrong in the findings of the learned trial court because the findings of the trial court are based on sound footings and prosecution has succeeded in proving its case, so the appeal of the accused-appellant may be dismissed.
