Shaikh Majid S/O Shaikh Imam v. the State of Maharashtra and Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court of Judicature at Bombay allowed the Criminal Application. The court held that since the parties had amicably settled the dispute following intervention by society members and the respondent received money, continuing proceedings would be an abuse of the legal process.
What did the court decide?
The Criminal Application was allowed; the FIR was quashed; the applicant was set at liberty.
