THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE U.DURGA PRASAD RAO Crl.P.M.P.No.1261 of 2015 in Crl.P.No.1147 of 2015 and Crl.P.No.1147 of 2015 Common Order:

The defacto complainant and her counsel Sri Pranathi Reddy Julakanti are present. Accused and his counsel Sri Palipati Radhika are present.

Heard both sides and perused the petition.

Upon the report given by the defacto complainant, the Police of C.C.S, Women Police Station, Hyderabad investigated the matter and laid charge sheet against the accused for the offences under Section 498(A) and 506 IPC and XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad took cognizance of the matter and registered as C.C.No.11 of 2014. At this juncture, both parties submitted that at the intervention of elders, they have amicably settled their differences and they are now living together peacefully and in view of it, the defacto complainant is having no objection for compounding the offence and quashment of the proceedings and hence permission may be accorded and the proceedings in C.C.No.11 of 2014 may be quashed in the interest of justice. Having regard to the above submission and considering the fact that it is a matrimonial matter wherein the parties have amicably settled their disputes and no useful purpose will be served even if the parties are driven to trial since they

compromised and following the decision of Apex Court reported in Gian Singh vs. State of Punjab and another[1], this petition is allowed and permission is accorded and compromise is recorded in terms of the accompanying memorandum of compromise and consequently the proceedings in C.C.No.11 of 2014 on the file of XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad are hereby quashed.

In the result, both the petitions are accordingly allowed. As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
