In the light of the said compromise entered into between the complainant and the 4th accused/petitioner they both appeared before the court today. When questioned, the de facto complainant Smt.

However, in so far as the other petitioners are concerned, the learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that he is not pressing the petition. 4 Accordingly, this petition is partly allowed and the proceedings in Cr.No.105 of 2010 on the file of Central Crime Station, Hyderabad, registered for the offence punishable under section 498- A of IPC, are hereby quashed in so far as the 4th petitioner herein is concerned and so far as the remaining petitioners are concerned, this petition stands dismissed. -------------- 24.09.2010 Kvsn
