SUNIL THOMAS, J.

Crl.M.C.No.1979 of 2018

Dated this the 10th day of April, 2018

ORDER

Petitioners herein are arrayed as accused in Crime

No.141 of 2011 of Eravipuram Police Station, now pending as

C.C.No.306 of 2011 of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-II

Kollam, for offences punishable under sections 498A, 323 r/w 34 of

the Indian Penal Code.

2. The allegation of the second respondent herein, who is

the defacto complainant is that, the first petitioner had married her

on 15.05.2005 and thereafter, misappropriated her gold ornaments

and money. It is also stated that the husband along with the in-laws

who are the petitioner Nos.2 to 5 subjected her to extreme

matrimonial cruelty. Ultimately, she laid the complaint and crime

was registered. It was further contended that, matrimonial disputes

were also pending in other courts. Crl.M.C is filed on a premise

that pending the proceedings, the couple got divorced and now they

are living separately. Since there is no existing matrimonial

disputes between the parties, both parties have resolved to give

quietus to the criminal proceeding. Accordingly, they have

preferred this Crl.M.C.

C rl.M.C.1979/18

3. Learned Public Prosecutor on instructions, submitted

that the parties have resolved their dispute and statement of the

defacto complainant has been recorded. Learned counsel for the

petitioners and learned counsel for the second respondent relied on

Annexure-3 affidavit affirmed by the second respondent. It was

submitted by the learned counsel that, she has no objection in

quashing the proceedings. Evidently, dispute is one arising from a

matrimonial dispute. Parties have resolved their dispute. Hence, no

purpose will be served by prosecuting the petitioners herein. It is

also to be considered that, such matters are liable to the quashed

and legal proceedings brought to an end in the interest of justice.

In the result, Crl.M.C is allowed. All further proceedings

arising from Crime No.141 of 2011 of Eravipuram Police Station

now pending as C.C.No.306 of 2011 of Judicial First Class

Magistrate Court-II Kollam will stand quashed.
