with respect to the offence registered with Ranip Police Station, Ahmedabad being C.R. No.I-29/2016;
(D) any other and further relief/s, may kindly be granted, in the interest of justice;
2. Though notice is served to the no-one is appeared on
behalf of applicants nor respondent. It transpires from the
record that the marriage has taken place between the
applicant no.1 i.e. victim girl and applicant no.2 and a copy of
registration of marriage, which is taken place on 23.05.2018,
is also on record. It further transpires from the record that out
of this wedlock, one daughter is born viz.Lisa on 15.09.2017.
Though the FIR is registered under Sections-363, 366 & 380
of IPC and Sec.3 & 4 of POSCO Act, but now, both the
applicants are happily living their life, no fruitful purpose
would be served to continue with the proceedings of
impugned FIR.
3. In view of the judgment of Hon'ble Apex Court in the
case of Gian Singh Vs. State of Punjab & Another, reported in
(2012) 10 SCC 303, this is a fit case where the Court should
exercise its inherent power under section-482 of Cr.P.C.
