HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.BHAVANI PRASAD Criminal Petition No.7323 of 2009 Dated : 14.09.2009 Between : B.Pruthiviraj & 2 others ….. Petitioners a n d 1) Fathima 2) The State of A.P. ….. Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.BHAVANI PRASAD Criminal Petition No.7323 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioners and the first respondent are present in person and they are identified by Sri A.Ravi Shankar, learned counsel for the petitioners, and Sri Syed Alimuddin, learned counsel, who stated that he is entering appearance for the first respondent. The criminal petition is filed stating that the parties have compromised the matter and compounded the offences and desired to have the criminal proceedings quashed. The offences involved are purely personal in nature with no element of public policy involved and the first respondent stated before the Court also that she compromised all the disputes and compounded all the offences with the petitioners and therefore, the further proceedings may be quashed. The petitioners also reiterated the request. The continuance of the prosecution in view of the said compromise will be a futile exercise and the vexing litigation has to be put an end to by invoking the inherent jurisdiction of this Court in such cases. Accordingly, the further proceedings in P.R.C.No.34 of 2009 on the file of the XVII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, are quashed and the criminal petition is allowed. The parties are informed. ______________________ G.BHAVANI PRASAD, J 14th September, 2009 SUR
