ALI PASHA @ MOHAMMAD ALIversusSTATE OF U.P. AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

The application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

The applicant, Ali Pasha, filed an application under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking relief. The court had earlier directed the applicant to deposit Rs. 30,000 with the Mediation Centre, but the applicant failed to do so as per the mediation report dated 28.08.2024. No counsel appeared on behalf of the applicant to press the application. Consequently, the High Court dismissed the Section 482 application for want of prosecution and vacated any interim order that may have been in place. The order was directed to be communicated to the trial court for further action.

Issues considered

  • Whether the application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. should be entertained despite the applicant's non‑appearance and failure to comply with the mediation deposit order
