No. 135 dated 17.6.2007 registered under Sections 380, 454, 447, 34 of the Indian Penal Code at Police Station Basti Jodhewal District Ludhiana and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom. Without going into any further details, suffice it to say that the aforesaid case was registered at the instance of respondent no. 2 Jatinder Kaur complainant who is present in the Court and identified by his counsel Sh.

In this regard, compromise deed dated 4.3.2008 Annexure P/2 is also placed on the file.

Moreover, it would also be in the interest of peace and harmony between the parties to close the chapter of this case. In the result, this petition succeeds and consequently, F.I.R. No. 135 dated 17.6.2007 registered under Sections 380, 454, 447, 34 of the Indian Penal Code at Police Station Basti Jodhewal District Ludhiana and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby ordered to be quashed, qua the petitioners.
