CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 21. 12. 2020, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Crl. M. C. No. 9050 of 2019 3 ORDER st Dated this the 21 day of December, 2020 Petitioner is the accused in Crime No. 35 of 2019 registered at the Anthikkad Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 448, 436 and 427 of IPC, now pending as C. P. No. 18 of 2019 on the files of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-III, Thrissur. The de facto complainant, at whose instance the crime was registered and the other injured persons, are arrayed as respondents 2 to 5.
Annexures IV to VII affidavits have been filed by respondents 2 to 5 stating that the dispute which led to registration of the crime, has been settled amicably and they have no subsisting grievance in the matter. 2. Heard the learned Public Prosecutor also, Crl. M. C. No. 9050 of 2019 4 who, on instructions, submits that the petitioners have no criminal antecedents. 3. Having considered the gravity of the offences alleged, nature of the injury caused and having perused the affidavit filed by respondents 2 to 5, the contents of which are submitted to be true and voluntary, I am satisfied that the dispute is settled and that no public interest is involved in this matter. Moreover, in view of the settlement, possibility of the criminal proceedings ending in conviction is remote. As such, continuance of the proceedings will amount to an abuse of process of court and hence, in view of the legal position set out by the Honourable Supreme Court in Madan Mohan Abbot v.
State of Punjab [(2008) 4 SCC 582] and Gian Singh v. State of Punjab and another [(2012) 10 SCC 303], there is no impediment in granting the relief sought. Crl. M. C. No. 9050 of 2019 5 In the result, this Crl. M. C is allowed. The proceedings in C. P. No. 18 of 2019 on the files of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-III, Thrissur is quashed. Sd/- V. G.
