ORDER

This Criminal Original Petition has been filed seeking to quash the charge sheet in C.C.No.1 of 2020 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate, Orathanadu, Thanjavur District.

2.The contention of the petitioners is that based on the complaint lodged by the 2nd respondent, the 1st respondent registered the First Information Report in Crime No.62 of 2017 for the offences punishable under Sections 294(b), 323, 324 and 506(ii) IPC, against the petitioners. It appears that there is a small issue between the parties. 3.The further contention of the petitioners is that they compromised the issue with the 2nd respondent amicably. A joint memo of compromise was filed, which has been duly signed by the petitioners and the 2nd respondent and also by their respective counsels. 4.The petitioners and the 2nd respondent appeared before this Court along with their counsels and also produced their Aadhar cards. They were also identified by the learned Additional Public Prosecutor and the 2/4

Investigation Officer. Both the parties were enquired by me and they accepted the terms of compromise. Hence, the Compromise Memo is recorded.

5.Considering the totality of the circumstances, the nature of the allegations levelled against the petitioners and also in view of the joint compromise memo, dated 03.03.2023, 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 C.C.No.1 of 2020 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate, Orathanadu, Thanjavur District in respect of the petitioners.
