Learned counsel for respondent No. 2 on instructions from respondent No. 2 who is also present in the Court in person states that the parties have effected compromise Annexure P/1 and therefore, respondent No. 2 has no objection if the impugned FIR is quashed. In appropriate cases, FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise by exercising power under section 482 Cr.P.C., even if the offence is not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh vs State of Punjab, 2007 (3) Law Herald (Punjab & Haryana) 2225. In the instant case, respondent no. 2 who is Professor in Medical College, Patiala has voluntarily entered into compromise with the Criminal Misc. No. M-14503 of 2009 -2- petitioners. Petitioner No. 1 was student of BDS and petitioner No. 2 was student of MBBS (Internship) at the time of occurrence. Keeping in view all the circumstances and careers of the petitioners, I deem it fit to quash the impugned FIR in view of the compromise. In view of the aforesaid, the instant petition is allowed and the impugned FIR No. FIR No. 186 dated 4.6.2005, under sections 452,323,506,34 IPC, Police Station Civil Lines, Patiala (Annexure P/1) is quashed along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom.
