HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRL.P. NO.5759 of 2011 DATE: 12.08.2011 BETWEEN: Kommineni Satish Kumar and others Petitioners/accused And State of A.P. Rep.by Public Prosecutor and another .. Respondents/complainant HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRL.P. NO.5759 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C seeking to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.407 of 2010 on the file of the II Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate cum Mahila Court, Vijayawada, Krishna District for the offences punishable under Section 498-A, 384, 406 and 506 of IPC. 2. I have heard the learned counsel appearing on either side. 3. The petitioners/accused and the second respondent-defacto complainant are present. They have stated that on the intervention of the elders, they compromised the matter and an amount of Rs.8,00,000/-(Rupees eight lakhs only) as mentioned in para 5 of the criminal petition was paid to the second respondent-Kommineni Naga Swapna towards permanent alimony and settlement of all claims. The second respondent admitted before the Court that she received the said amount and also stated that the quash proceedings can be allowed and she is no longer interested to prosecute the case. Further, in view of the compromise, if the criminal proceedings are allowed to be continued before the trial Court, no useful purpose will be served and there is no possibility for the prosecution to secure a conviction since the complainant and witnesses will not support the prosecution case. Thus, if the case is kept pending, it will cause much hardship and inconvenience to the parties and it also amounts to abuse of process of Court. 4. For the reasons aforementioned and in view of the compromise between the parties, the above proceedings before the trial Court against the accused are hereby quashed. 5. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed. ___________________ R.KANTHA RAO,J Date: 12.08.2011 kvrm HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRL.P. NO.5759 of 2011 DATE: 12.08.2011
