1. The case has been taken up on the mention slip given by learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Heard Shri Mohd. Belal, learned counsel for the applicants and Shri S.D. Shukla, learned AGA for the State. 3. This application u/s 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred for quashing the entire proceeding of Case No. 9167 of 2016 pending in the court of ACJM 3rd, Meerut arising out of Case No. 357 of 2015, under section 308, 325, 504 IPC, P.S. Kithaur, District Meerut. It is also prayed to stay the further proceeding of the aforesaid case during pendency of the present application. 4. It is submitted by learned counsel for the applicants that all the disputes and differences have been settled between the parties. The copy of compromise entered into between the parties has been annexed as annexure no. 4 of the memo of application wherein the compromise has been verified by the Court. At this stage, learned counsel further submitted that continuation of the proceedings of the aforesaid case will be an abuse of process of law. No fruitful purpose would be served keeping the matter pending. In support of his contention, learned counsel for the applicants has also placed reliance on the law laid down by Apex Court in Gian Singh vs. State of Punjab, (2012), 10 SCC 303, B.S. Joshi and others vs. State of Haryana and another, (2003) 4 SCC 675 and Madan Mohan Abbot vs. State of Punjab, (2008) 4 SCC 582. 5. On the other hand, learned AGA for the State submits that since the dispute between the parties has been settled, he has no objection if the proceedings of the aforesaid complaint case pending before the trial court is quashed. 6. I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the entire record. 7.
Since the dispute between the parties has been amicably and
mutually settled, no fruitful purpose would be served by permitting to continue the criminal case pending before the trial court and it would simply be a waste of time if the aforesaid case is permitted to continue till its logical conclusion. 8. In view of the above, the Application u/s 482 Cr.P.C. is allowed. 9. The entire proceeding of Case No. 9167 of 2016 pending in the court of ACJM 3rd, Meerut arising out of Case No. 357 of 2015, under section 308, 325, 504 IPC, P.S. Kithaur, District Meerut against the applicants is quashed in terms of compromise arrived at between the parties.
