THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON

Crl.MC.No.2298 OF 2020(F) 2
ORDER
Accused No.2 came up to quash the final report
and the proceedings thereof, alleging offence under
Sections 143,147,148,452,323,427,307 and 149. It
is submitted by the learned counsel for the
petitioner that all other accused persons were
acquitted after a prolonged trial. At that time,
the petitioner was not available in the station as
he was employed abroad. The matter was settled out
of court and an affidavit sworn by the defacto
complainant produced, wherein he had admitted that
he could not identify any of the person involved in
the crime. Hence, if it is proceeded further it
will not serve any purpose. So as to secure ends
of justice and to avoid unwarranted litigation, the
same is quashed. Crl.M.C. is allowed accordingly.
