DATE : AUGUST 03, 2009. P.C.: 1. The applicants have moved this Court for quashing of MECR No.02 of 2008 dated 6.10.2008 registered with Juhu police station for alleged offences punishable under sections 420 and 114 of the Indian Penal Code. According to the applicants, the matter is settled between the parties. There seems to be no dispute between the parties about the settlement in view of the affidavit of Ramesh Modi dated 17.6.2009 wherein the the deponent has stated that he is not willing to proceed with the aforesaid complaint as the matter between him and the accused, Ahmed Surani i.e. the applicant is settled. The dispute between the 2 parties is essentially of a private nature and the public at large are not concerned with the same. Having regard to the circumstances of the case, I consider it appropriate in the interest of justice to accept the plea of the parties and quash the aforesaid MECR. 2. Accordingly, the application is allowed in terms of prayer clause (a). S.A. BOBDE, J.
