IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-29697 of 2008 Date of decision: January 20, 2009 Sahid @ Jahid and others ….. Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and another ….. Respondents Present: Mr. Mohd. Yousuf, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. P.S. Sidhu, Addl. A.G., Punjab. Mr. Amaninder Preet, Advocate for respondent No.2. *** S.S. SARON, J. This petition under Section 482 CrPC has been filed seeking quashing of FIR No.79 dated 19.4.2008 (Annexure P2) registered at Police Station City Malerkotla, Distt. Sangrur for the offences under Sections 363, 366, 376 and 34 IPC and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom on the basis of compromise/affidavit dated 24.4.2008 (Annexure P3). It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that in fact the marriage between petitioner No.1 and the prosecutrix was solemnized on 9.4.2008 (Annexure P1). This, it is stated, is before the registration of FIR on 19.4.2008. It is submitted that the FIR was lodged by respondent No.2 who is the mother of the prosecutrix as she was not happy with the marriage. Now, she has deposed an affidavit (Annexure P3) and she does not want to pursue the matter further. Learned counsel for the State has submitted that the marriage between petitioner No.1 and the prosecutrix has indeed been solemnized and the Police has filed a cancellation report which is pending before the learned Magistrate. Crl. Misc. No. M-29697 of 2008 [2] After giving my thoughtful consideration, it may be noticed that a notice is required to be issued to the complainant/respondent No.2 by the trial Court regarding the filing of the cancellation report and thereafter the matter requires consideration in accordance with law. In view of the cancellation report that has been filed, the present petition has been rendered infructuous and is, accordingly, disposed of as infructuous. The learned trial Magistrate in view of the compromise shall, however, consider the cancellation report as expeditiously as possible. (S.S. SARON) JUDGE January 20, 2009 amit
