THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL PETITION No.12395 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners, who are arrayed as Accused Nos.1 to 4 in C.C.No.882 of 2010 on the file of the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at Miyapur, approached this Court and filed the present Criminal Petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings in the said C.C. The private respondent-Smt Mallela Sirisha, wife of the first petitioner herein, gave a report to the police, on the basis of which, a case in Crime No.251 of 2010 was registered on the file of Balanagar Police Station on 19.04.2010 against the petitioners for the offence punishable under Section 498-A IPC. After investigation, a charge sheet was filed and the same was taken on file as C.C.No.882 of 2010 on the file of the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at Miyapur. Subsequently, it appears that there was a compromise between the parties due to the intervention of the elders and well wishers. In the light of the said compromise, the parties executed a memorandum of understanding on 22.04.2010, as per which, the first petitioner herein shall pay a sum of Rs.1,50,000/- to the second respondent herein and the second respondent herein shall withdraw the said complaint against the petitioners. Today, when the matter is taken up, the parties are present before this Court. When questioned, the second respondent- Smt Mallela Sirisha submitted that she received a sum of Rs.1,50,000/- from the first petitioner herein and she does not have any objection if the proceedings in the said C.C. are quashed. As the offence punishable under Section 498-A IPC is compoundable and the parties have entered into compromise and also filed a memorandum of understanding to that effect and that the second respondent received a sum of Rs.1,50,000/- as per the terms of compromise, the proceedings in C.C.No.882 of 2010 on the file of the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at Miyapur against the petitioners herein are hereby quashed. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed. ___________________________________ JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA 21st December 2010 dr
