1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR. O R D E R Mohan & Anr. Versus State of Rajasthan & Anr. S.B. Criminal Misc. Petition No. 1368/2005 for quashing the criminal proceedings. ... Date of Order: September 06, 2006 PRESENT HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.R. PANWAR Mr. K.S. Gill, for the petitioners. Mr. Ashok Upadhyaya, Public Prosecutor for the State. Mr. L.D. Khatri, the non-petitioner himself. BY THE COURT: By the instant criminal miscellaneous petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C., the petitioners seek quashing of the procedings in Criminal Case No. 244/2002 arising out of the FIR No. 288/2002, Police Station, Shastri Nagar, Jodhpur, for the offences under Sections 427 and 336 IPC. Complainant himself is present in the Court and submits that he has filed a compromise before the Judicial Magistrate No.1, Jodhpur (for short, “the trial Court” hereinafter) compounding the offences and placed on record the certified copy of the compromise filed before the trial Court. Since the complainant himself has compounded the offence persuaded by 2 the spirit of Lok Adalat and th parties have settled the matter amicably and there remains no dispute as stated in the compromise, in my view, no useful purpose would be served in allowing the criminal proceedings to continue against the petitioners. Therefore, to secure the ends of justice, the criminal proceedings against the petitioners deserve to be quashed. The criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed and the criminal proceedings in Criminal Case No.244/2002 arising out of FIR No. 288/2002, Police Station, Shastri Nagar, Jodhpur, pending in the Court of the Judicial Magistrate No.1, Jodhpur, against the petitioners are quashed.
