Petitioner Versus 1.STATE OF BIHAR 2.Sri Baijnath Jha, son of late Binda Jha, resident of village-Bhaghwanpur Chakshekhu, Ward No.2, P.S.-Dalsingsarai, Dist-Samastipur. …… ……Opposite parties. ------- For the petitioner:Mr. Kalyan Shankar For opp. party no.2: Mr. Manoj Kumar For the State: Mrs.Indu Bala Pandey. ------- P R E S E N T THE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR ------ Rakesh Kumar,J. When the case was called out Mr.Manoj Kumar, learned counsel appearing on behalf of opposite party no.2 filed a petition indicating therein that due to intervention of friends and well wishers the dispute has already been settled and the case has been compromised in between the parties. Similar petition has also been filed on behalf of the petitioner. Let both the petitions be kept on the record. 2. In this case the petitioner has prayed for quashing of the order dated 20.2.1998 passed in T.R. No.922 of 1998 by Sri S.N.Singh, Judicial Magistrate, Daslsingsarai Camp, Samastipur. By the said order the learned Magistrate has taken cognizance of the offences under sections 323, 341, 386 and 427 of the Indian Penal Code. It was alleged in the complaint petition that while the petitioner was ploughing his field by his tractor the ridge of the 2 southern eastern side of the complainant was demolished and due to that he suffered a loss of Rs.100/-. By the impugned order the learned Magistrate, took cognizance of the offences as mentioned above. 3. Since both the parties have arrived at a compromise, it would not be appropriate to allow the proceeding in the complaint case to proceed further. It is true that some of the offences for which cognizance has been taken are not compoundable but for the ends of justice while exercising inherent power under section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure it is necessary to pass an order so that the dispute in between the parties may come to an end. 4. Accordingly, in view of compromise in between the parties further proceeding in complaint case no.353 of 1997/T.R. No.922 of 1998 pending in the court of Sri S.N.Singh, Judicial Magistrate, Dalsingsarai Camp, Samastipur including the order of cognizance dated 20.2.1998 are hereby quashed. Accordingly, the petition stands disposed of. Patna High Court The 13th April, 2010 NAFR/Md.S. ( Rakesh Kumar, J.)
