*1* IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.3858 OF 2009 Ranvir Krishnadev Shourey and another. ..Applicants versus The State of Maharashtra. ..Respondent ....... Mr.Niranjan Mundargi, Advocate for the Applicant. Ms.A.T.Jhaveri, APP for the Respondent/State. ........ CORAM : S. A. BOBDE, J. DATED : 27th August, 2009. P.C. : 1 This is a joint application made by the Complainant and the Accused under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for quashing of the proceedings in C.C. No.4132/P.W./05 pending on the file of the learned Metropolitan Magistrate 9th Court, Bandra. 2 The Applicant No.1/ Complainant had filed the First Information Report in respect of the offences allegedly committed by the Applicant No.2/Accused in relation to his car which was said to have been damaged. After investigation, the charge sheet has been filed before the learned Court of Metropolitan Magistrate 9th Court. 3 Apparently, the parties have settled the dispute between them *2* amicably and have made this application since the offences are not compoundable in view of amendment to Section 320 of the Code of Criminal Procedure w.e.f. 09th January, 2009. The dispute between the parties is of personal nature with which the public at large is not concerned. 4 Hence, having regard to the law laid down by the Supreme Court in case of Madan Mohan Abbot Vs. State of Punjab [(2008)4 SCC 582], I consider it appropriate to allow this application in terms of prayer clause (a) which reads as follow:- “(a) This Hon’ble Court be pleased to quash and set aside the proceedings in C.C. No.4132/PW/05, arising out of C.R. No.456/2002 registered with Respondent, on the file of Ld. Metropolitan Magistrate 9th Court, Bandra, Mumbai in the interest of justice;” 5 Order accordingly. (S. A. BOBDE, J.)
