THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Crl.M.P.Nos.5990 and 5991 OF 2016 & CRIMINAL PETITION No.4670 OF 2015 ORDER:

The above Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioner-accused under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings against her in C.C.No.869 of 2014 on the file of the II Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad.

The petitioner is alleged to have committed the offence punishable under Sections 448, 427 and 506 r/w 34 IPC. When this matter has come up, the 1st respondent-de facto complainant and the petitioner, who appeared before this Court, represented through their Counsel that due to intervention of elders, they entered into compromise and therefore, the proceedings in the above crime may be quashed.

The 1st respondent-de facto complainant also filed an affidavit to that effect. Both the parties filed a memo of compromise also.

In view of the compromise arrived at between the parties, the continuation of the proceedings against the petitioner-accused would be the exercise in futility.

In the above circumstances and in view of the compromise, this Court is of the view that it is just and proper to quash the proceedings against the petitioner herein. Hence, the above Crl.M.Ps are ordered and the proceedings against the petitioner in C.C.No.869 of 2014 on the file of the II Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, are quashed. The petitioner is directed to pay a sum of Rs.2,000/- (Rupees Two Thousand only) towards costs to the Telangana State Legal Services Authority, Hyderabad. The Registry is directed to issue a copy of this order to the parties concerned after furnishing a receipt of payment of costs.

Accordingly, the above Crl.M.Ps are ordered and the Criminal

Petition is allowed. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
