FOLLOWING:
Crl.M.C.No.1371 of 2020 2

ORDER

This is a proceedings under Section 482 of the Code

of Criminal Procedure for quashing Annexure – A2 Final Report

pending trial before the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court,

Kunnamkulam in C.C.No.1155 of 2016.

2. The petitioners are the accused in the said

case. The case was one registered under Sections 498A and

406 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

3. It is seen that the petitioners and the de facto

complainant of the crime have amicably settled the disputes.

An affidavit sworn to by the de facto complainant is part of the

records.

4. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners,

the learned Public Prosecutor as also the learned counsel for the

de facto complainant.

5. It is seen that the dispute arose on account of
Crl.M.C.No.1371 of 2020 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 –

A2 Final Report pending trial before the Judicial First Class

Magistrate Court, Kunnamkulam in C.C.No.1155 of 2016 and all

further proceedings thereto are quashed.
