CRL.MC NOs. 1842 & 1853 OF 2021
COMMON ORDER [Crl.MC Nos.1842/2021, 1853/2021]
Dated this the 6th day of July 2021
The petitioner in Crl.M.C.No.1842/2021 is the 1st
accused; while the petitioners in Crl.M.C.No.1853/2021 are
accused 2 and 3 in Crime No.639/2019 of Karunagappally
Police Station for having allegedly committed the offences
punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 323, 324 and 308
read with Section 149 of the I.P.C.
2. The allegation against the petitioners is that they
had attacked the de facto complainant and caused injuries
to him with the knowledge that the injuries could cause his
death, and thus attempted to commit culpable homicide. The
de facto complainant is the 2nd respondent herein and has
appeared through Counsel in both the Crl.M.Cs. and filed
affidavits to the effect that the matter has been settled
with the petitioners and that he has no grievance against
them and has no objection in quashing the proceedings
against the petitioners.
CRL.MC NOs. 1842 & 1853 OF 2021
3. The learned Public Prosecutor has also got
instructions from the investigating officer regarding the
settlement of the dispute between the accused persons and
the de facto complainant and there is no public interest
involved. The injuries are not life-threatening and the
petitioners do not have any other criminal antecedents.
4. Resultantly, both the Crl.M.Cs. are allowed and the
entire proceedings as against the petitioners in Crime
No.639/2019 of Karunagappally Police Station, presently
pending as S.C.No.982/2020 on the files of the Assistant
Sessions Court, Karunagappally, and C.P.No.121/2020 on the
files of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court,
Karungappally, stands quashed under Section 482 of Cr.P.C.
and the petitioners are discharged and set at liberty.
