OTHER PRESENT:

     THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
23.02.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING:
 Crl.MC.No.761 OF 2021(E)                   3




                                     ORDER

Petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

2. The petitioner is the defacto complainant in Crime No.37 of

2019 registered for the offences punishable under Sections

406,498(A), 323 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code before

the Kunnamangalam Police Station, now pending as C.C.No.221 of

2019 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court,

Kunnamangalam.

3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that

the parties have resolved their entire disputes among themselves and

as such there is no subsisting dispute between them. Therefore, this

petition to quash Annexure A, B and all the further proceedings in

C.C.No.221/2019 on the files of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court,

Kunnamangalam.

4. Learned counsel appearing for respondent Nos.1,2 and 3

would submit that the petitioner has no grievance or complaints

against them. Annexure D,E and F are the affidavits sworn to by them

in support of the submission of the petitioner. The genuineness of the

affidavits are not in dispute and hence accepted.

5. The learned Public Prosecutor has reported that the

prosecution has no serious objection in allowing the petition. It is also

submitted that as the dispute has been amicably settled, the

possibility of conviction is remote and bleak and therefore, no useful

purpose would be served in proceeding with the case.

6. On hearing the submissions of all concerned and on perusal of

the records as well on consideration of 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 this

petitioner. Moreover, no public interest is involved in the case and

there is no legal impediment in granting the prayer as sought for by

the petitioner. Therefore, for the purpose of securing the ends of

justice, this Crl.M.C is only to be allowed.

For the foregoing reasons Annexure A FIR and Annexure B Final

Report in Crime No.37 of 2019 of Kunnamangalam Police Station and

all further proceedings in C.C.No.221 of 2019 pending before the

Judicial First Class Magistrate Court, Kunnamangalam will stand

quashed as prayed for, exercising the powers of this Court under

Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
