The petitioners seek quashing of the order dated 27.11.2002, passed by the Judicial Magistrate, 1st class, Biharsharif (Nalanda) in Complaint Case No.281 of 2002 (Tr. Case No.1557 of 2002), by which cognizance has been taken for the offence under sections 498-A, 379/34 Indian Penal Code. 2. The case of the prosecution was that opposite party no.2 was married to the petitioner no.3, who happens to be the son of petitioner no.1 and 2 and brother of petitioner no.4 but she was tortured for ends of dowry. 3. The petitioners had averred that in fact the marriage had taken place 14 years ago and there is 10 years old daughter out of the - 2 - wedlock and they were still ready to keep the opposite party no.2 with full dignity. Upon this, this court had issued notice to the opposite party no.2 by order dated 23.3.2004 and thereafter on 11.11.2004 the parties appeared before this court and agreed to live together but since there were certain apprehension in the mind of the opposite party no.2, the matter was admitted for hearing with interim order of stay. 4. Today neither of the parties appeared before this court to state about the present state of affairs and, therefore, this court assumes that the matter has been sorted out between the parties and, therefore, this application is disposed of as having become infructuous.
