Signature Not Verified f' • The parties have decided to forget the past ditierence and have resolved their differences. I do not think in these circumstances prosecution proceedings should be allowed to continue. It is in the interest of justice that the prosecution proceedings should be quashed. It is pointed out that offences under Sections 323, 341 and 354 IPC are compoundable. Accordingly, the present petitions are allowed and the FIR No.252/2000 Police Station Vasant Kunj and FIR No.459/1999 Police Station Vasant Kunj and the proceedings emanating therefrom are hereby set aside and quashed.
