CORAM : MILIND N. JADHAV, J. DATE : OCTOBER 09, 2026 1 of 4 113.APL.1769.2026+114+115+156.doc P.C. : 1. Heard Mr. Rajgor, learned Advocate for Applicants in Criminal Application Nos.1769 of 2026 and 1770 of 2026 and Respondent No.2 in Criminal Application Nos.1774 of 2026 and 786 of 2025; Mr. Karmakar, learned APP for Respondent No.1 and Mr. Singh, learned Advocate for Applicants in Criminal Application Nos.1774 of 2026 and 786 of 2025 and Respondent No. in Criminal Application Nos.1769 of 2026 and 1770 of 2026. 2. Four Applications are filed by the parties for seeking consent quashing. The parties before me namely Applicants as well as the Complainants have filed cross-complaints against each other. One of the Complainant has expired. Be that as it may, the total number of parties before me are 45 in number. They are all members of a Co- Operative housing society. A minor scuffle occurred during a meeting whereby a minor daughter of a society member got hurt which led to the filing of the First Information Report which escalated the tension further leading to filing of further complaints and cross complaints. 3. All parties are before me. They are identified by their respective Advocates. They are all members of a Co-operative Housing Society living in the same building and part of the same society and are desirous of putting an end and closure and quietus to the entire dispute. The criminal proceedings are undoubtedly hindering the 2 of 4 113.APL.1769.2026+114+115+156.doc future prospects of all the members not only professionally but even otherwise emotionally and are also affecting their family life. 4. In that view of the matter, a joint request is made by all the parties to the Court to quash the criminal Complaints by consent quashing. I am inclined to therefore accept the request made by the parties and relieve them of the ignominy of the criminal proceedings in view of the dispute which had arisen and led to the filing of the criminal complaint and the criminal proceedings. The consent affidavits of all complainants are placed before me, I have perused them, I have interacted with the parties who are present in Court. 5. Hence, Application No.1769 of 2026 is allowed in terms of prayer clause (a) which reads thus:- “(a) that quash and set aside C.R. No. 193 of 2025 registered with Borivali Police Station, Mumbai, the charge sheet (Form No. 5-A/ Charge Sheet No. 193 of 2025) filed thereon and pending before the Court of the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, 26th Court, Borivali, Mumbai being Police cases S/0005426/2025, qua the Applicants.” 6.
