JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA Present: Mr. Amit Kohar, Advocate, for the petitioner(s). Mr. S.S. Nara, Sr. DAG, Haryana. Mr. Rahul Bhargava, Advocate, for respondent no. 2. AJAI LAMBA, J. (ORAL) This petition has been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. praying for quashing of FIR No. 619 dated 01.10.2009 under Section 381 IPC, City Police Station, District Yamuna Nagar, placed on record as Annexure P-1 on the basis of compromise Annexure P-2. Vide order dated 20.04.2011, the Trial Court was directed send a report in regard to validity of the compromise. A report has been received from Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Jagadhari dated 20.08.2011, according to which satisfaction has been recorded that the compromise is valid. The parties have appeared and given their statements before the Magistrate to the effect that the disputes have been settled. Learned counsel for the respondent-complainant contends that indeed compromise Annexure P-2 has been signed by respondent no. 2- Crl. Misc. No. M-11566 of 2011 (O & M) 2 complainant and the complainant does not want to prosecute the petitioner. Learned counsel for the respondent-State states that because the parties have entered into a compromise, the petition for quashing of FIR is not opposed. Since disputes have been settled by way of compromise, respondent-complainant would not be bringing evidence to Court. In such circumstances, continuance of proceedings will be an exercise in futility. Considering the nature of offence and what has been recorded above, the petition is allowed. FIR No. 619 dated 01.10.2009 under Section 381 IPC, City Police Station, District Yamuna Nagar and subsequent proceedings are hereby quashed. 23.08.2011 (AJAI LAMBA) shivani JUDGE
