ORDER
The petition is filed by the accused in Crime No.172/2016 of
the Perinthalmanna Police Station, which has been taking into
premises of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-I, Perinthalmanna
as C.C No.352/2016 for offences allegedly punishable under
Sections 498A and 406 r/w Section 34 of IPC.
2. The 2nd respondent is the defacto complainant, who is
wife of the 1st petitioner. The defacto complainant has filed an
affidavit, sworn in front of the Assistant Consular Officer, in the
Consulate General of India, Jeddah. Her parents, who are in the
country have also given their statement to the investigating
officer, which has been conveyed to this court by the learned
Public Prosecutor. In view of the conciliation that has been arrived
at between the parties, I find that there is no meaning in keeping
the proceedings pending before the court below. In the
circumstance, the petition is allowed and the entire proceedings in
C.C No.352/2016 on the files of Judicial First Class Magistrate
Court-I, Perinthalmanna would stand quashed. The petitioners
shall be exonerated from the allegations.
