When there is no eyewitness to be relied upon,

Besides, in case titled, “Saifullah vs the State” (1985 SCMR 410), it has been ruled by the Hon’ble Supreme Court that:- 

“When there is no eyewitness to be relied upon, then there is nothing, which can be corroborated by the recovery”.

In this regard reliance can be placed in on the judgments rendered by the Hon’ble apex court in Ijaz Ahmed’s case (1997 SCMR 1279 and Asadullah’s case (PLD 1971 SC 541).
