The Informant had 50% share, Shazia Parveen and Bharti Pravin Rathod had 25% share each in this land. After about four months of purchase of the said land, one customer showed interest in purchasing the said land. However, as per the Informant the Applicant No.1 his wife Shazia Parveen and Bharti Rathod were not showing interest in selling the said land and they were avoiding sale transaction of this land since the year 2023. As the Informant was in urgent need of money, he made phone call to the Applicant on 14.07.
2025 to ask him about sale transaction upon which the Applicant abused him in filthy language and threatened him by saying that he will not sell the land. Therefore, the Informant and his elder brother Mohd. Sajid went to the house of the Applicant to talk to him about sale transaction. At that time, the Applicant and his brothers and the Applicant No.2 Ab. Naim, Ab. Muqim, Ab. Maviya and two unknown assailants raised attack on the Informant and his brother. The Applicant No.1 threatened the Informant to kill by raising gun on his person and fired a bullet. In the said incident the Informant as well his brother sustained the injuries. On the basis of the said report, Police have registered the crime against the present Applicants. 3.
He submitted that regarding the said incident the cross complaints are filed. During the pendency of the cross complaints both parties have arrived at a settlement and they have filed quashing proceeding also. As far as the injured are concerned now they are not under the apprehension of death,

Learned APP strongly opposed for the same and submitted that considering the nature of the injuries sustained by the injured and the other prosecution witnesses in which the weapons like fire arm and sharp weapons were used, wherein three persons have sustained the injuries. The statements of the witnesses also discloses the involvement of the present Applicants in the alleged incident. In view of that, the Application deserves to be rejected.

On hearing both the sides and on perusal of the statements of witnesses as well as medical certificate which is on record shows the involvement of the present Applicants in the alleged offence, but considering the fact that now they have already settled the dispute between themselves. Admittedly, the alleged incident has occurred on account of selling of the land which was purchased by them jointly. As they have already arrived at a settlement and the application is already filed for quashing of the proceeding and considering the fact that the custodial interrogation is not required, the Application deserves to be allowed.
