Criminal Misc. No. M-2611 of 2008 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-2611 of 2008 Date of decision:- 29.7.2008 Roshan Lal ...Petitioner. Versus State of Punjab and another ...Respondents. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. Atul Jain, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Anter Singh Brar, DAG, Punjab. RAJESH BINDAL J. The prayer made in present petition filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short `the Code') is for quashing of FIR No. 173 dated 20.10.2006 registered under Section 409 IPC at police station Sultanpur Lodhi, District Kapurthala and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom on the basis of compromise arrived at between the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the dispute between the parties has been settled amicably. A copy of compromise is placed on record as Annexure P-2. The prayer is that once the dispute between the parties has been settled amicably, the FIR in question be quashed. Reliance has been placed upon a five Judge Bench judgment of this Court in Kulwinder Singh v. State of Punjab, 2007(3) Law Herald (P&H) 2225. A perusal of the paper book shows that respondent no.2- complainant in the present case is not a private body owned by any individual rather it is a Society. Still further the allegation against the petitioner is of embezzlement of money. Keeping in view this fact, I do not find this to be a fit case where respondent no.2-complainant could Criminal Misc. No. M-2611 of 2008 2 compromise the matter with the petitioner The petition is dismissed. July 29, 2008 ( RAJESH BINDAL ) ritu-II JUDGE
