NAWAB SINGH J.(ORAL) By this petition under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure, the petitioner seeks quashing of First Information Report (for short 'FIR) No.6 dated February 01st, 2008, registered under Sections 406 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') at Police Station Behram, District SBS Nagar. By order dated April 25th, 2011, Ritu Bahri, J. directed the parties to appear before the trial Court and the trial Court was directed to record the statements of the parties. In compliance with the same, Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, SBS Nagar recorded the statements of the parties, whereby, they stated that they have compromised the matter. Compromise-deed (Annexure P2) has also been placed on record. Indeed, the dispute between the parties was of personal nature. In view of this, there should not be any impediment in allowing the parties to compromise the matter. Support to this view can be had from the authority 'Madan Mohan Abbot Vs. State of Punjab' 2008 (2) RCR (Criminal) 429, wherein, Hon'ble Supreme Court has ruled that in such type of cases, where the dispute is of personal nature, Court should ordinarily, accept the compromise. In view of above, petition is accepted. Consequently, FIR No.6 dated February 01st, 2008, registered under Sections 406 and 420 IPC at Police Station Behram, District SBS Nagar and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed.
