HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.12833 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is ﬁled by the petitioner- accused, under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings in Crime No.469 of 2011 of Osmania University P.S., Hyderabad, registered for the oﬀences punishable under Sections 354 and 506 of IPC. When the matter is taken up for hearing today, it is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that during pendency of the Criminal Petition, at the intervention of elders and well wishers, both the parties compromised the matter out of Court and, therefore, he prayed to quash the proceedings against the petitioner. The de facto complainant, 2nd respondent herein, is present before this Court and produced her identity and the same is veriﬁed by the learned Addl. Public Prosecutor. She stated that on the advice of elders and well-wishers, herself and the petitioner have compromised the matter out of Court and therefore she intends to withdraw the criminal proceedings pending against the petitioner with free will and consent and there is no coercion or undue inﬂuence from any other side for the same. To that eﬀect, she also ﬁled an affidavit. The learned Addl. Public Prosecutor submitted that there is no objection to quash the proceedings inasmuch as both the parties settled the matter amicably. In the light of the compromise arrived at between the parties, this Court is of the view that continuation of the criminal proceedings against the petitioner would serve no purpose and invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C., the proceedings in the crime can be quashed by compounding the offence. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed and the proceedings in Crime No.469 of 2011 of Osmania University P.S., Hyderabad, are hereby quashed. The aﬃdavit of the 2nd respondent ﬁled into Court be made as part of this order. Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, ﬁled along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 1st December, 2011 cbs Note: Issue CC by 09.12.2011 HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.12191 of 2011 (Allo wed) 2nd December, 2011 cbs
