Law:

Section:

(a) Criminal Procedure Code (V of 1898)-------Ss. 235 & 239---Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Art. 203F(2B)---Single charge with three heads was framed to stand joint trial with respect to the respective offences committed by the accused according to their individual roles---Validity---Different acts committed by the accused in the case had, prima facie, made out a series of events linked - in a manner so as to constitute a single transaction commencing with the abduction of the complainant---Question as to whether the abduction had taken place with knowledge or connivance of co-accused and whether the motive for abduction was to remove the kidney of the abductee were relevant and were to be examined on the basis of evidence recorded by the Trial Court in support of the charge--Provisions of Ss. 235 and 239, Cr.
