Mr. Gaurav Garg Dhuriwala, AAG, Punjab. Mr. Sanjeev Kumar Arora, Advocate for respondent No.2. *** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present petition has been filed by Sukhwinder Singh, Raman Kumar, Rakesh Mehta, Baldev Singh, Saraj Singh and Surinder Kumar under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure for quashing of FIR No.120 dated 23.08.2007 under Sections 420/465/467/468/471/120-B IPC registered at P.S. Mamdot, Ferozepur, Annexure P1, and all other consequential proceedings arising therefrom on the basis of compromise, Annexure P2, having been entered into the parties. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record. Crl.Misc.No.M-892 of 2010 It has been stated by learned counsel for the parties that dispute between the parties has been compromised due to intervention of respectable persons and relatives from both the sides. Respondent No.2 – complainant has also appeared in the Court and filed reply by way of affidavit admitting the factum of compromise, Annexure P2, stating that he has no objection if the FIR, in question, and consequential proceedings are quashed. It has also been stated by learned counsel for the State that compromise has been verified and that cancellation report has been filed in view of compromise. Reply to this effect has also been placed on record on behalf of State. 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 was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh v. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Since the parties have amicably settled the matter and compromise has been effected between them due to intervention of respectable persons, the present petition is accepted and the impugned FIR No.120 dated 23.08.2007 under Sections 420/465/467/468/471/120-B IPC registered at P.S. Mamdot, Ferozepur, Annexure P1 alongwith all consequential proceedings is, hereby, quashed. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) March 23, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
