THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO. CRL. PETITION No. 10551 of 2010. ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the FIR.No. 823 of 2010 of P.S. Panjagutta pending on the file of the XIV Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad. The de facto complainant/respondent No.2 and A.3 are present. I have heard the parties present and the learned Counsel appearing for both the parties. Basing on the complaint lodged by the 2nd respondent, Police Panjagutta registered a case in Cr.No. 823 of 2010 u/ss 342, 352 r/w 34 IPC against the petitioners. The allegation is that the petitioners wrongfully confined the 2nd respondent on the ground that he availed loan of Rs. 11.58 lakhs from India Bulls Home Finance Ltd., and did not repay the loan instalments. However, subsequent to the filing of this petition, both the parties have compromised the matter and the 2nd respondent addressed a letter to the SHO, Panjagutta on 14.10.2010 stating that he compromised the matter with the petitioners and requested not to proceed further in Cr.No. 823 of 2010. It is stated that in spite of the letter given by the 2nd respondent, the Police Panjagutta arrested the petitioners on the ground that FIR was already issued and they are proceeding with further investigation in the matter. Considering all the aspects of the matter, I am of the view that the disputes between the parties are purely personal and there is no public law violation. In view of the submission made by the 2nd respondent that he compromised the matter with the petitioners and he is no longer interested to prosecute the case, continuing the investigation any longer amounts to abuse of process of law and ultimately it leads to miscarriage of justice. Therefore, the entire investigation in FIR.No. 823 of 2010 of P.S. Panjagutta is hereby quashed. The criminal petition is allowed. _________________________ R.KANTHA RAO,J 27.10.2010. KRB.
