Learned Advocate for the Applicant has placed on record a photocopy of the judgment passed by the Principal Judge, Family Court, Junagadh, in Family Suit No. 52/2026, whereby, vide order dated 12. 03. 2026, the marriage between Vishal Shamjibhai alias Sanjaybhai Pokar and Rinkal d/o Pravinbhai Bhimani came to be dissolved under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. The same is taken on record. Further, learned Advocate for Respondent No. 2 – Original Complainant has also placed on record the affidavit evidencing the compromise arrived at between the parties. 3. Respondent No. 2 – Original Complainant, namely, Rinkal d/ o Pravinbhai Bhimani, is present before this Court through video conferencing. 4.
Since the dispute is matrimonial in nature and has arisen between the complainant and her in-laws, and since the same has been amicably resolved between the parties, no useful purpose would be served by permitting the proceedings to continue, more particularly when the husband has already been acquitted by the Trial Court in Criminal Case No. 3184/2024 vide judgment and order dated 24. 04. 2026. In view of the above, the present application stands allowed qua Applicant Nos. 2 to 4. Consequently, FIR No. 11203040240019 of 2024 registered with Mahila Police Station, Junagadh, for the offences punishable under Sections 498A, 323, 504 and 114 of the IPC on 27. 04. 2024, and the consequential Criminal Case No. 3184/2024 qua the present Applicant Nos. 2 to 4, are hereby quashed and set aside. 5.
