Mr. Palwinder Singh, Sr. DAG, Punjab. Respondents No.2 and 3 in person with Mr. Sanjay Jangra, Advocate. NAWAB SINGH J.(ORAL) In this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, quashing of First Information Report (for short 'FIR) No. 127 dated August 24th, 2011 registered under Sections 420/120-B of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') at Police Station City Roopnagar, District Roopnagar, has been sought. It is pleaded that the parties have compromised the matter. Compromise-deed (Annexure P-2) coupled with the affidavit of the complainant has also 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. 127 dated August 24th, 2011 registered under Sections 420/120-B IPC at Police Station City Roopnagar, District Roopnagar and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed. 19.12.2011.
