Order
10/01/2023
By way of filing instant revision, challenge has been made to
the judgment dated 06.10.2015 passed by Additional Sessions
Judge, Bansur in criminal appeal No. 09/2011 whereby the learned
appellate Court partly allowed the appeal filed by the complainant
and remanded back to the learned Judicial Magistrate vide order
dated 09.08.2011 who acquitted the accused petitioner from the
charges.
Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the
material available on record.
During the course of hearing of the revision petition, the
parties have amicably settled the dispute and entered into a
(2 of 2) [CRLR-1525/2015]
compromise as per which the complainant did not wish to continue
the proceeding against the accused petitioner, since it is a
matrimonial dispute in between the parties which does not put any
adverse effect on the society or do not create threat to the public
peace, therefore in view of the judgment Gian Singh versus State
of Punjab reported in (2012) 10 SCC 302, even in the non-
compoundable offence, the High Court can exercise its inherent
powers and can quash the proceedings so as to see peaceful burial
of the dispute between the spouses.
In this view of the matter, the petition is allowed. The
judgment dated 06.10.2015 passed by learned Additional Sessions
Judge, Bansur is quashed and set aside and the judgment dated
09.08.2011 passed by learned Judicial Magistrate is affirmed. The
accused is on bail and his bail bonds are discharged.
All pending applications stand disposed off.
