IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-18335 of 2010 Date of decision : 1.7.2010 Karan Puri …. Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and Others ….. Respondents Present : Mr. Vivek Arora, Advocate for the petitioner. *** S.S. SARON, J. The petition has been filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking quashing of FIR No.159 dated 26.5.2010 registered at Police Station Pehowa, District Kurukshetra for the offences under Sections 363, 366-A, 376 and 506 Indian Penal Code. The quashing of FIR is sought on the basis of affidavit dated 24.6.2000 of the parents of the complainant. The FIR has been lodged by respondent No.2 who is a minor. It is alleged by the complainant/respondent No.2 that she is a minor and that the petitioner took her out of the village by taking her in confidence. She had got pregnant from the petitioner and he had abandoned her. Three attempts have been made on her life and regular threats through telephone were being made. Now Kashmir Singh, father of the complainant (respondent No.2) has deposed an affidavit (Annexure P2) which is to the effect that they have gone Crl. Misc. No. M-18335 of 2010 [2] through the entire matter and have mutually compromised the matter. Therefore, they and their daughter do not wish to proceed in the matter legally. After giving my thoughtful consideration to the matter, the case relates to commission of rape on a minor girl which is not liable to be quashed on the basis of compromise. In the circumstances, there is no merit in the present petition and the same is accordingly dismissed. (S.S. SARON) JUDGE July 1, 2010 amit
