ORDER
Petitioner is the accused in crime No. 1118 of 2020 of
Poojappura police station, which was registered on the basis of the First
Information Statement given by the 1st respondent alleging offence
punishable under Sections 294(b) and 323 of the IPC.
2. On conclusion of investigation, now charge sheet has been laid
before the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court
Thiruvananthapuram, where the case is pending as C.C. NO. 950 of
2020. The petitioner has moved this Court under Section 482 of the
Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the entire proceedings on the premise that the
dispute with the 1st respondent stands settled. In support of the said
contention Annexure-B affidavit of the 1 st respondent also has been
produced, where the 1st respondent, the injured and the defacto
complainant has stated in clear terms that the dispute is settled and he
does not want to pursue the proceedings .
3. I heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the
learned Senior Public Prosecutor.
4. The allegations against the petitioner are minor in nature. It
was purely a personal dispute with the 1st respondent. Now the matter
stands settled amicably, out of Court, and therefore there is no point in Crl.M.C.No.3980 of 2021
continuing the proceedings. Entire proceedings in C.C. NO. 950 of
2020 are here by quashed under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C. and the
peitioner shall stand exonerated.
Criminal Miscellaneous Case is allowed of as above.
