The parties have filed a petition for divorce by mutual consent under Section 13-B of the Hindu Marriage Act. They have also tendered compromise-deed (Annexure P-3). Having regard to the fact that all matrimonial differences have been resolved, this Court is of opinion that no useful purpose would be served by allowing the criminal proceedings to continue against the petitioner.
