Bhupinder Singh ....Petitioner Versus State of Punjab & another ....Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NAWAB SINGH Present: Mr. K.S. Mangat, Advocate for for the petitioner. Mr. Palwinder Singh, Sr. DAG, Punjab. Complainant in person with Mr. PKS Pholka, Advocate. NAWAB SINGH.J (ORAL) The powers of this Court under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure have been sought to be invoked for quashing of First Information Report (for short 'FIR) No.121 dated December 12th, 2010 registered under Sections 427 and 436 of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') in Police Station Qadian, District Gurdaspur. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has urged that the dispute was between father and the son which has been amicably settled. In this regard, compromise-deed (Annexure P-2) and the affidavit of the complainant (Annexure P-3) have also been placed on record. It has been stated that there is no ill-will left and they want to live in peace and harmony in future. The offence under Section 436 is non-compoundable but taking into consideration the fact that the matter relates to father and son so, there should not be any embargo in allowing the parties to compromise the matter. Support to this view can be had from a Five Judge Bench's decision of this Court rendered in Kulwinder Singh & others Vs. State of Punjab and another, 2007 (3) RCR (Criminal) 1052. Criminal Misc. No. M-26249 of 2011 (2) 3. In view of the above, the petition is accepted, FIR No.121 dated December 12th, 2010 registered under Sections 427 and 436 IPC in Police Station Qadian, District Gurdaspur and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed. 19.12.2011.
