In compliance with the same, Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Baba Bakala has sent a report to the effect that the parties have compromised the matter. Affidavit of the complainant (Annexure P-3) 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. 7 dated June 5th, 2010 registered under Sections 420/120-B IPC at Police Station Mattewal, District Amritsar and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed. 19.12.2011.
