ORDER

This Criminal Original Petition has been filed to call for the records relating to the case in S.C.No.174 of 2022 on the file of the Fast Track Mahila Court Cum Additional Sessions Judge, Sivagangai and quash the same as against the petitioner / accused. 2.The contention of the petitioner is that based on the complaint lodged by the 2nd respondent, the 1st respondent registered the First Information Report in Crime No.6 of 2022 for the offences punishable under Sections 294(b) and 307 IPC, against the petitioner. It appears that there is a small issue between the parties. 3.The further contention of the petitioner is that they compromised the issue with the respondents 2 and 3 amicably. A joint memo of compromise was filed, which has been duly signed by the petitioner and the respondents 2 and 3 and also by their respective counsels.

5.Considering the totality of the circumstances, the nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioner and also in view of the joint compromise memo, dated 11.04.2023, this Court is of the opinion that no useful purpose will be served by keeping the matter pending and inclined to quash all further proceedings in S.C.No.174 of 2022 on the file of the Fast Track Mahila Court Cum Additional Sessions Judge, Sivagangai in respect of the petitioners.
