--Benefit of doubt----Principles---

In the case of “Muhammad Akram v. The State” (2009 SCMR 230), it has been held as under:- 


“--Benefit of doubt----Principles--- For giving the benefit of doubt it is not necessary that there should be many circumstances creating doubts---Single circumstance creating reasonable doubt in a prudent mind about the guilt of accused makes him entitled to its benefit, not as a matter of grace and concession, but as a matter of right.”
