As per the allegations of respondent No.2, Sewa Ram on 02.07.2006, when he was present at Naka under the directions of the higher officials, the petitioner arrived on a red motorcycle. When signalled to stop at the Naka, he instead of stopping struck against the complainant intentionally with high speed due to which the complainant-respondent fell down. The petitioner is alleged to have caused hindrance in the performance of Government duty by respondent No.2. Respondent No.2 had appeared before this Court on two or three occasions. No one is present on behalf of respondent No.2. . . . 1 Crl.Misc.No.M-23245 of 2008 Counsel seeks time contending that counsel for the petitioner is not available. I dispose of this petition with a direction that the trial Court will record the statement of petitioner and respondent No.2 and determine if the parties have actually compromised vide Annexure P-1. In full bench judgment of this Court in Kulwinder Singh and others Vs. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.), Page-1052, it has been laid down that FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise even in the cases which are not compoundable. Following the ratio of said judgment in the exercise of powers of inherent jurisdiction, it is ordered that in case the trial court is satisfied that the matter has been compromised, permission is granted to compound the offence in the light of judgment in case Kulwinder Singh and others (supra) and acquit the accused-petitioner on the basis of compromise. Parties are directed to appear before the trial Court on the date fixed i.e., 09.06.2010. Disposed of. (M.M.S.BEDI) JUDGE March 17, 2010. rka . . . 2
