28.4.2008. Present: Mr.Vivek Thakur, Addl. A.G. with Ms.Subh Mahajan, Dy. A.G. for the State. Mr. Vijay Pandit, Advocate with Ms.Yogita Dutta, Advocate for the respondent. Cr.M.P. No.223/2008 in Cr.A.No. 336/2001.. A joint application along with supporting affidavits has been filed stating therein that both husband and wife have resolved their dispute amicably and are living together for the last three years. They have made statements in the Court in support of the application. Keeping in view the ratio of law laid down in B.S.Joshi and others Vs. State of Haryana and another (2003) 4 Supreme Court Cases 675, their application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been taken on record. The present appeal filed by the State arises out of the judgment delivered by the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Shimla in Criminal Case No. 173/2 of 1992 acquitting the accused of the charged offence. On the complaint filed by the wife of the respondent he was prosecuted for an offence under Section 498-A of the I.P.C Appreciating the material on record, the court below acquitted the accused for the reason that the prosecution witnesses did not prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record. During trial the complainant PW-1 and the prosecution witnesses PW-2 and PW-3 have not supported and proved the guilt of the accused for the charged offence. Even here, in their statements the complainant and her husband have deposed that they have amicably reconciled the matter and are living with their children. In my view, there is no perversity or illegality in the judgment passed by the court below. I see no reason to interfere with the same. The material has been considered by the court below in its entirety. Justice requires that the present matter be closed as it is. The appeal is accordingly dismissed. The bail bonds are discharged.
