It has been contended by learned counsel for the parties that the parties are closely related and that the dispute between the parties has been amicably settled due to intervention of respectable persons and relatives from both the sides. Respondent No.2-complainant also appeared through counsel and filed his short reply by way of affidavit admitting the factum of compromise and stating that he is having no objection if the FIR and consequential proceedings are quashed. Other injured namely Satya Devi wife of Khem Chand and Anjali d/o Khem Chand have also come present and filed their affidavits stating that they are having no objection if the FIR and consequential proceedings against the petitioners, are quashed. Criminal Misc.No. M-8221 of 2010 -2- In appropriate cases FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise by exercising power under Section 482 Cr.P.C., even if the offences are not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh vs. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Hence, in the interest of harmonious relations between the parties, the present petition is accepted and FIR No.64 dated 01.12.2009, under Sections 452,323,148 and 149 IPC, registered at Police Station Narot Jaimal Singh, District Gurdaspur alongwith all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, is quashed qua petitioners-Pawan Kumar, Ajay Kumar, Rakesh Kumar, Shalu and Rinpu.
