THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
07.04.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING:
Crl.MC.No.1712 OF 2021(D) 3
ORDER
Petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
2. The petitioners are the accused in Crime No.277 of 2019 of
Chalissery police station registered for the offence punishable under
Section 498A read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code, now
pending as C.C.No.541 of 2019 on the file of the Judicial First Class
Magistrate Court, Pattambi.
3. Heard both sides and perused the records.
4. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that
the parties have resolved the entire dispute among themselves and
there is no subsisting dispute between them and they are living
separately. Therefore, this petition to quash the entire proceedings in
C.C.No.541 of 2019.
5. Learned counsel appearing for the 2 nd
respondent/defacto complainant has submitted that she has absolutely
no grievance or complaints against the petitioners. Annexure A5, the
affidavit sworn to by her, indicates that she has no intention to
pursue the matter further.
6. The learned Public Prosecutor has reported that the
prosecution has no serious objection in allowing the petition.
7. As the dispute has been amicably settled, the possibility
of conviction is remote and bleak.
8. Therefore, considering the special facts and
circumstances involved in this case, I find that no fruitful purpose is
likely to be served by proceeding with the matter against the
petitioners. Moreover, no public interest is involved in the case and
there is no legal impediment in granting the prayer as sought for by
the petitioners. Therefore, for the purpose of securing the ends of
justice, this Crl.M.C. is only to be allowed, invoking the jurisdiction
under Section 482 of Cr.P.C.
For the foregoing reasons, the entire proceedings in C.C.
No.541 of 2019 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court,
Pattambi arising from Crime No.277 of 2019 of Chalissery Police
Station, will stand quashed as prayed for.
