HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION Nos.9620 & 10220 of 2011 AND CRIMINAL PETITION No.13842 of 2011 COMMON ORDER: Since parties to the proceedings are one and same, these three criminal petitions are being disposed of together by this common order. These three criminal petitions are filed, under Section 482 of Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against them in D.V.C.No.12 of 2011 on the file of the XIII Metropolitan Magistrate, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar, in Crime No.435 of 2011 of Miyapur P.S., Cyberabad, registered for the offence punishable under Section 324 of IPC, and in Crime No.234 of 2011 of Nacharam P.S., Cyberabad, registered for the offence punishable under Sectiion 498-A of IPC. When the matter is taken up for hearing today, it is submitted by both the counsel that during pendency of the Criminal Petitions, at the intervention of elders and well wishers, both the parties compromised the matter out of Court and, to that effect, they entered into a Memorandum of Compromise-cum-Settlement Deed on 20.12.2011 and, therefore, they prayed to quash the proceedings against the petitioners. The de facto complainants are present before this Court and produced their identities and the same are verified by the learned Addl. Public Prosecutor. They stated that on the advice of elders and well- wishers, they compromised the matter out of Court and therefore they intend to withdraw the criminal proceedings pending against each other with free will and consent and there is no coercion or undue influence from any other side for the same. They also filed affidavits narrating the compromise. The learned Addl. Public Prosecutor submitted that there is no objection to quash the proceedings inasmuch as both the parties settled the matter amicably. In the light of the compromise arrived at between the parties, this Court is of the view that continuation of the criminal proceedings against the petitioners would serve no purpose and invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. the proceedings can be quashed by compounding the offences. Accordingly, all the Criminal Petitions are allowed and the proceedings initiated against the petitioners herein in D.V.C.No.12 of 2011 on the file of the XIII Metropolitan Magistrate, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar, in Crime No.435 of 2011 of Miyapur P.S., Cyberabad and in Crime No.234 of 2011 of Nacharam P.S., Cyberabad, are hereby quashed. The affidavits of the de facto complainants and copy of the Memorandum of Compromise-cum- Settlement Deed dated 20.12.2011 filed into Court be made as part of this order. Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petitions shall stand closed. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 23rd December, 2011 cbs HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION Nos.9620 & 10220 of 2011 AND CRIMINAL PETITION No.13842 of 2011 (Allowed) 23rd December, 2011 cbs
