The Supreme Court of Pakistan has reserved its verdict on an appeal filed by Nazim, a convict in a murder case

ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 15th Sep, 2025) The Supreme Court of Pakistan has reserved its verdict on an appeal filed by Nazim, a convict in a murder case. A three-member bench headed by Justice Hashim Kakar heard the appeal.

During the proceedings, the petitioner's counsel argued that Nazim was wrongly nominated in the murder case of Adnan.

The lawyer claimed that firing was done by both parties and questioned how it was determined that Nazim's shot hit the victim. The counsel also pointed out that the postmortem was conducted late and alleged that Adnan was killed by the plaintiff's own firing.

The plaintiff's lawyer countered that it was implausible for the plaintiff to kill his own 21-year-old grandson. The court noted that the convict was also accused of occupying Dogar's land.
