Respondent no. 2 in his reply affidavit has stated that parties have effected compromise with the intervention of respectables and therefore, respondent no.2 has no objection to the quashing of FIR. Learned counsel for respondent no.2, on instructions from respondent no.2, who is also present in person in the Court, states that parties have effected compromise Annexure P-2 and therefore, respondent no.2 has no objection to the quashing of FIR. 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 has been so held by a Full Bench of this Court in case of Kulwinder Singh vs. State of Punjab reported as 2007 (3) Law Herald (Punjab and Haryana) 2225. In the instant case, complainant-respondent no.2 is real brother of petitioner no.4, whereas other petitioners are companions of petitioner no.4. Various civil and criminal cases were pending between the parties and the same have been compromised. The dispute regarding property/share in land has also been settled. Accordingly, it is a fit case in which FIR should be quashed, so that the parties may live in peace and harmony and entire litigation between them may come to an end. In view of the aforesaid, the instant petition is allowed and impugned FIR No. No.28 dated 07.02.1998, under Sections 420, 467, 471, 452, 427, 380, 506 IPC, registered at Police Station Civil Lines, District Amritsar (Annexure P-1) is quashed, along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom.
