THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON
03.12.2018, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING:
CR MC 890/2014 3

O R D E R

This petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal

Procedure Code has been filed by Accused Nos.2 to 4 to quash

Annexure-D final report and all further proceedings in

C.C.No.984/2012 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate

Court-II, Nedumangad. Crime No.314/2012 was registered under

Sections 497, 498A, 120B 34 of the Indian penal Code against

the petitioners/accused 2 to 4 and the 1st accused.

2. The records would reveal that the 1 st accused had

married the de facto complainant who is the 2 nd respondent

herein as per the custom of their community on 15.9.1998 and

they resided together as husband and wife for sometime. Two

children were born out of their wedlock. Thereafter, their

relationship got strained and the parties have separated. Cases

have been filed by the de facto complainant/2 nd respondent

before the Family Court, Nedumangad and this case was also

filed by her against her husband and the petitioners. Petitioners
CR MC 890/2014 4

1 and 3 are the parents of the 1 st accused and 2nd

petitioner/accused No.3 is the brother-in-law of the de facto

complainant. While so, the marital dispute between the de facto

complainant and the 1st accused was settled out of court between

the parties and all the cases pending before the Family Court

were disposed of accepting the settlement arrangement entered

between the parties. Finally, their marriage has also been

dissolved by a decree of divorce. While so, these petitioners

approached this Court to quash the final report filed against them

contending that there is no material to proceed against them and

if the case is proceeded with, it will result as an abuse of process

of the court.

3. Now the learned counsel for the petitioners have

submitted that the entire dispute between the parties have

settled finally and the de facto complainant has absolutely no

complaints against the petitioners as well against the 1 st

accused.

4. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, learned

counsel for the de facto complainant and the learned Public

Prosecutor.

CR MC 890/2014 5

5. The learned Public Prosecutor has filed a report

incorporating the statement of the de facto complainant taken by

the investigating officer. The de facto complainant has specifically

stated before the investigating officer that she has no complaints

against the petitioners as well against the 1 st accused and she

has no objection in quashing the final report filed against all the

accused persons. Considering the entire facts involved in this

case, I find that this petition is only to be allowed as prayed for,

to prevent abuse of the process of the court and to secure the

ends of justice.

6. Hence, the final report filed in Crime No.314/2012 of

Aruvikkara Police Station (C.C.No.984/2012 on the file of the

Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-II, Nedumangad) against the

accused for the offences under Sections 497, 498A, 120B 34 of

IPC stands quashed as prayed for.

The Crl.M.C.is allowed.
