Kerala HC Quashes Attempt To Murder Case After Settlement

  • Case Name: Arshad v. State of Kerala & Anr.
  • Judge(s): Justice A Badharudeen

The Kerala High Court recently quashed an attempt to murder case after the parties involved reached a settlement

The court recognized that both the complainant and the accused wished to resolve their issues amicably, which led to the decision to dismiss the charges.

The court emphasized that such cases can only be dismissed after filing a final report, as established in the Laxmi Narayan case (2019).

The decision ensures serious offenses are thoroughly reviewed before charges are dismissed, upholding justice and resolution.

The court encourages settlements but emphasizes a detailed review of evidence to ensure justice is served.
