ORDER
Dated this the 6th day of June, 2024 This Criminal Miscellaneous Case has been filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, to quash all further proceedings in C.P. No.24/2019 on the files of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-I, North Paravur, alleging commission of offence punishable under Section 376 of IPC.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner argued at
length to convince this Court that no offence made out, prima facie, from the prosecution records. Since he failed in this endeavour and when this Court was about to dismiss this petition, holding that there are sufficient materials to go for trial, the learned counsel for the petitioner sought permission to withdraw this petition. Permission granted.
3. Accordingly, this petition stands dismissed as
withdrawn. Registry is directed to forward a copy of this order to the trial court, within three days, for information and further steps. Sd/- A. BADHARUDEEN JUDGE SK
