HAMED BIN SALIM CHAUS AND OTHERSversusSALIM BIN MOHAMMAD CHAUS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The criminal revision application was disposed of as the cause of action no longer survived due to the parties' settlement.

Summary

The applicants, Hamed Bin Salim Chaus and others, filed a criminal revision application against Salim Bin Mohammad Chaus. During the hearing, the applicant's counsel informed the court that the parties had reached an amicable settlement outside the court. Consequently, the cause of action to prosecute the matter no longer existed. The court considered whether the settlement extinguished the need for further adjudication of the revision. Finding that the dispute was resolved, the court disposed of the criminal revision application. No further orders were made.

                                  DATE : 22 September 2026


                P. C. :-

                1.          The learned advocate for the applicants states, on

                instructions, that the parties have amicably settled the dispute

                between them outside the court. Therefore, the cause of action to

                prosecute the matter does not survive and the revision needs to

                be disposed of.


                2.          In view of the above statement, the Criminal

                Revision Application is disposed of.
