ORDER This revision is in challenge of judgment of learned I Additional Sessions Judge, Ernakulam in Crl.Appeal No.28 of 2008 confirming conviction but modifying sentence of petitioner/accused for offence punishable under Section 324 of the Indian Penal Code. 2. Petitioner/accused and defacto complainant/injured filed Crl.M.A.No.7743 of 2009 reporting settlement and seeking permission to compound the offence. 3. It is seen from Crl.M.A. No.7743 of 2009 that parties have settled the dispute out of court. Offence proved against the petitioner is compoundable with permission of the court. There is no reason to think that the composition is not voluntary. Hence permission is granted and Crl.M.A.No.7743 of 2009 is allowed. The composition entered between petitioner/accused and defacto complainant/injured is accepted and that shall have the effect of acquittal of petitioner/accused of the charge against him under Section 320(8) of the Code of Criminal Procedure. Revision Petition is disposed of as above. THOMAS P.JOSEPH, Judge. cks
