This is a proceedings under Section 482 of the Code

3
the matrimonial discord between the de facto complainant
and her husband, the first accused. Though the matter is
settled between the parties, I have examined the accusation
in the case and found that this is a matter that could be
settled and closed in the light of the decisions of the Apex
Court in Jitendra Raghuvanshi v. Babita Raghuvanshi,
(2013) 4 SCC 58 and Gian singh v. State of Punjab, (2012)
10 SCC 303, invoking the jurisdiction under Section 482 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure.
In the result, the Crl.M.C. is allowed and Annexure –
A3 Final Report pending trial before the Judicial First Class
Magistrate Court, Thalassery in C.C.No.547 of 2019 and all
further proceedings thereto are quashed.
