Admittedly, Crl. M. No.24703-M of 2008 was filed by the present petitioners and the same was dismissed as withdrawn vide order dated 23.9.2008. This is second petition filed by the petitioners with the same prayer. Notice of motion was issued only because learned counsel for the petitioners had stated that the petitioner were ready to compromise the matter once for all. The matter was also sent before Mediation and Conciliation Centre in order to explore the possibility of compromise. However, the mediation proceedings have failed. Accordingly, the matter has been sent back to this Court for further proceedings. On 6.12.2010, the Crl. M. No.673-M of 2010 -2- parties once again were given an opportunity to settle the matter. Today, learned counsel for the petitioners states that the matter could not be compromised. Notice of motion was issued only to explore the possibility of compromise. The same did not materialize. Dismissed accordingly. 14.12.2010 ( NIRMALJIT KAUR ) rajeev JUDGE
