ORAL ORAL JUDGMENT
1. Since, both these applications arise from a cross First Information Report, those were heard analogously and are being disposed of by this common judgment and order.
2. Rule returnable forthwith. Mr.Shah, the learned APP waives service of notice of Rule for and on behalf of the respondent no.1 State of Gujarat.
3. In Criminal Misc. Application No.21576 of 2014, Mr.B.B.Naik, the learned Senior Advocate assisted by Mr.Jaimin Dave, the learned advocate has appeared on behalf of the respondent No.2 - original informant. In Special Criminal Application No.4834 of 2014, Mr.P.B.Khambholja, the learned advocate has appeared on behalf of respondent No.2 - original informant and waive service of notice of Rule for and on behalf of the respondent no.2.
4. It appears that the parties had an altercation on account of a very trivial issue. The quarrel between the two ladies led to the filing of the two FIRs being C.R.No.II3292 of 2014 for the offence punishable under Sections 323, 294(b) and 351 of the Indian Penal Page 2 of 3 R/SCR.A/4834/2014 JUDGMENT Code and C.R.No.II3293 of 2014 for the offence punishable under Sections 323 and 294(B) of the Indian Penal Code, both registered with the Ellisbridge Police Station, Ahmedabad
5. Taking into consideration the nature of the dispute and the fact that the two young ladies had an altercation and fight on a very petty issue, they have decided to bury their differences and resolve the dispute. They are present before the Court and they are being identified by their respective learned advocates.
6. In the result, both these applications are allowed. The FIR being C.R.No.II3292 of 2014 and FIR being C.R.No.II3293 of 2014 both registered with the Ellisbridge Police Station, Ahmedabad are ordered to be quashed. Consequently, all further proceedings pursuant to the FIRs shall also stand terminated.
7. Rule is made absolute in both these petitions.
