Bibek Chaudhuri, J.
The parties have settled their dispute out of Court
amicably and a joint petition for compromise has been filed by
them. It appears from the record that in connection with New
Town Police Station Case No.503 of 2017, charge sheet has been
submitted against the petitioners under Sections
323/326/427/341/120B/506/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It
appears from the charge sheet that except the allegation under
Section 326 of the Indian Penal Code all other alleged offences
are compoundable in nature. It is also learnt that the trial Court
has already framed charge against the petitioners under Section
326 of the Indian Penal Code.
On perusal of the materials on record as well as the case
diary, it appears that the husband of the de facto complainant
was assaulted by the petitioner No.1 with the help of 'sandals'
(chappal). He fell down on the ground and received injury on his
wrist. At the time of medical treatment it is found that his wrist
was fractured. It is found from the case itself that fracture
injury received by the husband of the de facto complainant does
not come within the meaning of grievous hurt under Section 320
of the Indian Penal Code. Therefore, no charge under Section
326 of the Indian Penal Code can be framed against the accused
persons. Since all other offences are bailable in nature and the
dispute has been settled amicably, G.R. Case No.3462 of 2017
under Sections 323/326/427/341/120B/506/34 of the Indian
Penal Code pending before the learned Judicial Magistrate, First
Court, Barasat, North 24 Parganas arising out of New Town
Police Station Case No.503 of 2017 dated 21 st October, 2017 be
quashed on compromise.
The joint compromise petition be made part of this order.
The instant application is, thus, disposed of.
(Bibek Chaudhuri, J.)
