1.

The petitioner is the accused in Crime No.178/2021 of Hosdurg Police Station, Kasaragod District, alleging commission of offences punishable

under Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code.

2.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the crime came to be registered on the basis of a complaint filed by the 3rd respondent and that

the entire matter stands settled as is evident from Annexure A2 affidavit executed by the 3rd respondent. It is also submitted that the offence is

compoundable with the permission of the court. But the petitioner is unable to apply for permission of the court as no final report has been filed in the

matter.

3.

I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the respective parties and the learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the 1st and 2nd respondents.

4.

In the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that this is a fit case where the inherent jurisdiction of this Court under

Section 482 Cr.P.C can be exercised in order to secure the ends of justice. Therefore, keeping in mind the principles laid down by the Hon'ble

Supreme Court in Gian Singh v. State of Punjab & another [2012(4) KLT 108] and in Parbatbhai Aahir v. State of Gujarat and another [(2017) 9 SCC

641], Annexure A1 FIR in Crime No.178/2021 of the Hosdurg Police Station and all further proceedings will stand quashed as against the petitioner.
