Both the parties present and are identified by their respective counsel. They produced the Xerox copies of the Aadhaar cards and the same are made as part of the record. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and in view of the affidavit filed by the de facto complainant and the joint memo of compromise filed by both the parties, I.A.No.1 of 2018 is allowed.

Consequently, the criminal revision case is allowed. The conviction and sentence recorded against the accused by the Special Judicial Magistrate of First Class for Prohibition and Excise, Guntur, in C.C.No.189 of 2008 dated 19.05.2010, as confirmed by the IV Additional District and Sessions Judge, Guntur, in Crl.A.No.265 of 2010 dated 02.07.2010 are set aside and the accused is acquitted of the offence punishable under Section 498-A IPC.
