IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-5485 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision : 18.7.2011. Jarnail Singh ...... Petitioner Versus State of Haryana & another ...... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NAWAB SINGH Present: Mr. Pankaj Bali, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Satyavir S. Yadav, DAG, Haryana. Complainant in person with Mr. R.K. Agnihotri, Advocate. NAWAB SINGH J.(ORAL) By this petition under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure, the petitioner seeks quashing of First Information Report (for short 'FIR) No.401 dated August 23rd, 2008 registered under Sections 420, 467 and 471/120-B of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') at Police Station Civl Lines, Karnal. Quashing has been sought on the ground that parties have compromised the matter. Affidavit of complainant- respondent No.2 (Annexure P-2) has been placed on record. Indeed, the dispute between the parties was of personal nature. In view of this, there should not be any impediment in allowing the parties to compromise the matter. Support to this view can be had from the authority 'Madan Mohan Abbot Vs. State of Punjab' 2008 (2) RCR (Criminal) 429, wherein, Hon'ble Supreme Court has ruled that in such type of cases, where the dispute is of personal nature, Court should ordinarily, accept the compromise. In view of above, petition is accepted. Consequently, FIR No.401 dated August 23rd, 2008 registered under Sections 420, 467 and 471/120-B IPC at Police Station Civl Lines, Karnal and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed. 18.7.2011 (NAWAB SINGH) SN JUDGE
