2.
I.A.Nos.3 and 4 of 2019 are filed under Sections 320(6) and 320(2) of Cr.P.C., by both parties seeking leave of this Court to compound the offences and to record compromise as the matter was settled out of the Court due to intervention of the elders. Along with the affidavits, they filed a memorandum of compromise stating that due to intervention of the elders and well-wishers, the petitioners/A1 A2 and A4 and the 2nd respondent-de-facto complainant have settled the matter amicably and that the 2nd respondent has no objection in closing the criminal case against the accused. A3 died during pendency of the proceedings.
3.
Today, when the matter came up for hearing, the 2nd respondent/de-facto complainant, A1, A2 and A4 are present and they are identified by their respective counsel. When this Court enquired the parties, the de-facto complainant and the accused stated that they entered into compromise due to intervention of the elders and the de-facto complainant and A1 are living together amiably.
4. In view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, I find that it is a fit case to grant leave to the parties to compound the offences and to quash the proceedings against the petitioner/accused.
5. In the result, I.A.Nos.3 and 4 of 2019 are ordered. Consequently, the Criminal Petition is allowed and the proceedings in S.C.No.407 of 2016 on the file of VIII Additional Sessions Judge, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar, are hereby quashed against the petitioners/A1, A2 and A4.
