Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the FIR Annexure P-1 has been registered at the instance of Sweta, CRM-M 25454 of 2009 (O&M) -2- daughter of Om Parkash. During the course of hearing of CRM-M 16951 of 2009, which was filed by her husband for grant of anticipatory bail, a compromise was entered into between the parties in terms of which, the petitioner had to pay Rs.5,00,000/- (Five lakh) by way of demand draft towards full and final settlement which has been accepted by the complainant Sweta. On 11.9.2009, notice of motion was issued for today and this case was ordered to be listed alongwith CRM-M 16951 of 2009. Pursuant to notice of motion, respondent No.2 has put in appearance through Mr. Nirmal Mittal,Advocate and has been identified by him. In terms of the compromise which was struck between the parties, the petitioner No.1/husband Sachin has handed over two demand drafts dated 06.10.2009 of Rs. 1,00,000/- each, two demand drafts dated 07.10.2009 of Rs. 1,00,000/- each and one demand draft dated 8.10.2009 of Rs.1,00,000/-personally to the complainant Sweta, drawn in her name. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the case in which compromise has been effected between the parties, I feel that no useful purpose would be served to proceed with the present FIR, therefore, in view of the Full bench decision of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh and others Vs. State of Punjab and another 2007 (3) R.C.R (Criminal) 1052, the present petition is allowed and FIR No. 192 dated 26.4.2009, registered under Sections 498-A, 406, 323,506 IPC at Police Station, CRM-M 25454 of 2009 (O&M) -3- City Fatehabad, District Fatehabad including all other subsequent proceedings arising therefrom are hereby quashed.
