(Oral) Petitiones have brought this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for quashing of F.I.R. No. 81 dated 17.2.2008 registered under Sections 148, 149, 323, 324, 307 of the Indian Penal Code at Police Station City Karnal 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 Jaidev Lambha complainant who is present in the Court and identified by his counsel Sh. Surinder Dagar. The petitioners and the injured respondents are college going students. Now the parties have settled the dispute amicably with the intervention of the respectables and common relations. In this regard, compromise deed dated 8.5.2008 Annexure P/2 is also placed on the file. On the asking of the Court, the petitioners and the injured Criminal Misc. -M No. 13937 of 2008 (O&M) -2- who are present in the court have stated that in future they would not fight during their study period in the college. In the given facts and circumstances, this Court feels that no useful purpose would be served if the proceedings in the case in hand are allowed to continue. 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. 81 dated 17.2.2008 registered under Sections 148, 149, 323, 324, 307 of the Indian Penal Code at Police Station City Karnal and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby ordered to be quashed, qua the petitioners.
