ORDER

The petitioners sought for quashing of the FIR registered for the alleged offences under Sections 147, 294 (b) and 506(ii) I.P.C.

2. The gist of the allegation is that on account of prior enmity, the petitioners had abused the defacto complainant in filthy language and committed the offence of criminal intimidation.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners and the second respondent belong to the same village and they have now entered into a compromise and decided to give a quietus to the entire dispute. The parties have filed a joint compromise memo dated 11.11.2025.

2/4

4. The petitioners and the second respondent are present before this Court in person. They are identified by Mr.A.Jeyakumar, S.I., B1 Melur Police Station, Madurai District. All the parties confirmed the compromise arrived at between them.

4. Considering the nature of the offences and the relationship between the parties, this Court is of the view that no useful purpose would be served by keeping the impugned FIR pending investigation. Accordingly, the impugned FIR in Crime No.222 of 2023 is quashed and the Criminal Original Petition stands allowed. The joint compromise memo dated 11.11.2025, shall form part and parcel of the order. The petitioners shall jointly pay a cost of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) to the credit of the "District Siddha Medical Officer, CCRI, Periyakulam" (Account No.10767823177, IFSC Code: SBIN0000898, MICR Code: 625002601) and file a photocopy of the receipt along with a memo reporting compliance in the Registry.
