Some fifty or sixty fishermen were there drawing nets and drying them up. We asked them for our nets and boats. Accused 2 and others said ' where are your boats and nets, what money do you ask'. Accused 3 did not answer me. Hasana Lubbai then said "If you do not return the tackle to-day, I shall see how you fish to-morrow in the sea". Accused 2 and 3 then incited accused 1 to cut. The learned Sessions Judge who tried the murder case observes in paragraph 18 of his judgment : 'P. Ws. 5, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 13 went there to assist the Muhammadans. I have no doubt that it was the Muhammadans that went to sea-shore to pick up a quarrel and to take away the nets and boats from the fishermen forcibly. They also took some pariahs and pallas to help them'.
