This Criminal Original Petition filed to quash the proceedings in S.C.No.307 of 2019, pending on the file of Mahila Court at Allikulam.

2. The mother is the defacto complainant. The father is the accused/ petitioner. The allegation is that when the daughter asked for a pocket money of Rs.500/-, in a fit of rage, he pulled out a knife which was kept for cutting fruits and stabbed the daughter. All three of them are today present together before this Court. The defacto complainant and the daughter have no objection in closing the case. Since the matter is within the family and even though the offence is under Section 307 IPC, the nature of the offence is that it was committed in a fit of rage and anger.
