Learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that it was wrong on the part of the complainant who was examined on dock to state before the learned Magistrate that the petitioner wanted to withdraw the instant case with liberty to file afresh.
4. Considering that the withdrawal of the case is made on the prayer of the aggrieved party and on the basis of an amicable settlement, it appears that the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Howrah was wise enough to permit the withdrawal of the case but no liberty was granted to sue afresh.
5. Considering that the parties have amicably settled the matter and the dues are being paid to the private respondent as per terms and conditions in the memorandum of settlement and the prayer of the
private respondent being that he does not want any liberty to sue afresh, this Court observes that the complaint case C-642/2023 has been withdrawn as a whole on the basis of terms and conditions of the amicable settlement.
6. On hearing the parties, the writ application along with CAN 3 of 2025 is disposed of, on the matter being settled on the basis of the settlement and release agreement dated 9th June, 2025.
