Quashing of proceeding under s.498A when there is compromise between parties
Thus, it is crystal clear that since the parties have resolved the dispute between themselves amicably, there is no propriety in continuing with R.C.C. No. 12 of 2009, more particularly, to the extent of Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code, since the complainant i.e. respondent no.2 has no grievance against the applicants in that respect. Hence, in any event, said proceeding R.C.C. No. 12 of 2009 shall not result into conviction in respect of Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code, since respondent no.2 i.e. original complainant does not desire to prosecute the said proceeding in that respect, and hence, to continue with the said proceeding, particularly under Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code would be futile exercise, 10 crap3686.12
and therefore, said proceeding to the extent of Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code deserves to be quashed and set aside by allowing the present application.
