Having regard to the fact that the disputes have been settled out side the Court and both parties have entered into memorandum of compromise and the first respondent is no more interested in prosecuting criminal proceedings against the petitioners, it is considered that no useful purpose would be served by continuing further proceedings against the petitioners in Cr.No.2 of 2010 of PS Koyyur and in CC No.1346 of 2009 on the file of the Additional Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Karimnagar. It is therefore considered a fit case to invoke inherent powers of this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C., to quash further proceedings against the petitioners in Cr.No.2 of 2010 of PS Koyyur and in CC No.1346 of 2009 on the file of the Additional Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Karimnagar 4.
