It is urged that the parties have compromised the matter. Compromise-deed (Annexure P-2) coupled with the affidavit of the complainant has been placed on record. In fact, 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.237 dated November 15th, 2006 under Sections 420, 427, 467, 468 and 471 read with Section 34 IPC registered in Police Station City Malout, District Sri Muktsar Sahib and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed. 15.12.2011.
