HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION Nos.7379 OF 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioner-accused No.1, under Section 482 of Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against him in Crime No.198 of 2007 on the file of the Nirmal Town P.S., Adilabad District, registered for the offence under Section 363 of IPC. Heard. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner and the daughter of the 2nd respondent-defacto complainant are in love and they got married in the year 2007 and they were blessed with children and they are living peacefully. He further submitted that as the marriage has taken place without the consent of the 2nd respondent, he filed the complaint to take revenge against the petitioner. The daughter of the 2nd respondent by name Kadam Latha has appeared before this Court and stated that she married the petitioner on 19.9.2007 and, during their wedlock, they were blessed with two female children and, from the date of marriage, they are living happily. She further stated that she has no grievance against the petitioner and they want to lead marital life in a peaceful manner. Hence, she prayed this Court to quash the criminal proceedings pending against the petitioner in the crime. Considering the fact that the petitioner and the daughter of the defacto complainant are living as wife and husband and also the affidavit filed by the daughter of the defacto complainant and though the complaint is lodged by the defacto complainant, since her daughter is inclined to continue her marital life with the petitioner, this Court is of the view that the proceedings in the crime can be quashed, by invoking the provisions under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed and the proceedings initiated against the petitioner herein in Crime No.198 of 2007 on the file of Nirmal Town P.S., Adilabad District, are hereby quashed. The affidavit of the daughter of the 2nd respondent filed into Court be made as part of this order. Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, filed shall stand closed. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 30th August, 2011 cbs HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION Nos.7379 OF 2011 (Allowed) 30th August, 2011 cbs
