Present:

Mr. Justice Mamnoon Rahman

25.04.2024 Mr. Mohammad Ali, Adv.

...For the petitioner-appellant.

Mr. Mahbubur Rahman, Adv.

…For the complainant-opposite party No. 2

Mr. Md. Taifoor Kabir, DAG with Mr. Md. Lokman Hossain, AAG Mr. Md. Hatem Ali, AAG

.....For the State.

The parties have filed joint application for compromise on the ground that they settled the matter amicably.

I have heard the learned Advocates for the petitioner-appellant as well as complainant-opposite party No. 2 and perused the application for compromise.

It appears that the instant revision was preferred by the convict-appellant-petitioner challenging the judgment and order of conviction and sentence passed by the trial court and subsequently affirmed by the appellate court in a proceeding relates to Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.

It further appears that both the parties intend to settle the matter amicably and executed a deed of agreement as evident in Annexure-I of the application for compromise. Since the parties agreed to settle the matter amicably, I am inclined to allow the application.

Accordingly, the instant application is allowed and the rule be disposed of in terms of the application for compromise. The judgment and order of conviction and sentence dated 15.09.2022 passed by the court below is hereby set aside.

The respondent-opposite party No. 2 is at liberty to withdraw the money from the court below as deposited by the convict-appellant-petitioner forthwith.

Send down the L.C. Records, if any, to the concerned court below with a copy of this order at once.
