Wali, JSC in his contributory judgment held that: “But before concluding this judgment, I wish to comment on the way and manner the prosecution conducted the investigation of this case. The method adopted left much to be desired. With the number of police officers trained as lawyer in the police force, the quality of the police investigation, particularly in this case, is far below the quality and standard one would expect in this age of technological development.... Prosecution of cases are more often than not, conducted in a loose and unsatisfactory manner resulting to acquittal of criminals who should have been convicted” In conclusion, I am of the considered view that the prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubts and also failed to lead cogent evidence to warrant this court to convict the accused person. Accordingly, I will reluctantly discharge and acquit the accused person for lack of credible evidence. The accused person is hereby discharged and acquitted.
