the records pertaining to C.C. No. 121 of 2023 on the file of the

2. The learned counsel for the petitioner seeks quashment on
compromise. The joint compromise memo is also filed. The parties are
also present before the Court.

decided to part as friends and an alimony of Rs.8,00,000/- is agreed to be

deposition before the mutual consent petition and another on the day of
withdrawal of the maintenance case. Upon questioning, the party is seem
to understand the terms of the compromise that the de-facto complainant
consents that she doesn't want to press the allegation and the case can be
quashed on compromise.
4. Considering the same as per the dictum of the Hon'ble Supreme
Court of India in B.S.Joshi and ors., Vs. State of Haryana and anr.,
reported in (2003) 4 SCC 675 and the subsequent judgments, I am of the
view that when the matter arises out of marital discord and the parties
have settled the issue one way or the other, this Court can exercise the
power under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
5. In view thereof, the criminal original petition shall stands
allowed. The joint memorandum of compromise shall form part and
parcel of the record. The case in C.C. No. 121 of 2023 on the file of the
