Petitioners-A.1, A.3 to A.7 and The State of A.P. & others ..Respondents THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.2407 OF 2011 and Crl.P.M.P.No.2471 OF 2011 ORDER: Petitioners-A.1, A.3 to A.7 approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.670 of 2010 on the file of the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, for the offence under Section 435 Indian Penal Code and 7 of Criminal Amendment Act. Heard. Today, when the matter is taken up for hearing, R.2 is present before this Court and he submitted that the subject matter of the criminal case has been compromised at the intervention of the elders and thus prayed to quash the proceedings against the petitioners. Crl.P.M.P.No.2471 of 2011 is also filed narrating the compromise between the parties along with an affidavit duly signed by R.2. This Court perused the entire material on record. Even though the offences alleged against the petitioners are non-compoundable in nature, in view of the fact that the parties have compromised the matter outside the Court, this Court is of the view that any continuation of the criminal proceedings would serve no purpose and in view of the guidelines laid down by Hon’ble Supreme Court by exercising inherent powers under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure the further proceedings against the petitioners-accused can be quashed by this Court. Therefore, Crl.P.M.P.No.2477 of 2011 is allowed and consequently the Criminal Petition is also allowed and the further proceedings in C.C.No.670 of 2009 on the file of the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, are hereby quashed. Affidavit of R.2 be made as part of this order. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ________________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated : 18.03.2011 sur
