Mr. G.S.Rawat, Advocate for respondent Nos.2 and 3. *** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) Both the aforementioned petitions have been filed under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure for quashing of FIR No.171, dated 09.08.2009, under Sections 324/323/325/308/506/148/149 IPC, Annexure CRM No.M-36563 of 2009 P1, registered at P.S. Dina Nagar, District Gurdaspur and all other consequential proceedings arising therefrom on the basis of compromise, Annexure P2, having been entered into between the parties. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the record. It has been stated by learned counsel for the parties that respondent Nos.2 and 3 had come to the locality to attend the marriage ceremony at the house of their sister and some altercation took place there between the parties and that however, due to intervention of respectable persons of the locality and the relatives, the dispute has been settled. Respondent Nos.2 and 3 have also come present in the court with their counsel and filed their replies by way of affidavits stating that they have no objection if the FIR and subsequent proceedings are quashed. Reply has also been placed on record on behalf of respondent – State stating that only one person has sustained injuries. In appropriate cases FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise by exercising power under Section 482 Cr.P.C., even if the offences are not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh v. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Since the parties have amicably settled the matter and compromise has been effected between them due to intervention of the respectable persons of the locality and relatives, in the interest of harmonious relations between the parties, the present petition is allowed and the impugned FIR No.171 dated 9.8.2009 under Sections 324/323/325/308/506/148/149 IPC registered at P.S. Dina Nagar, District 2 CRM No.M-36563 of 2009 Gurdaspur, Annexure P1, alongwith all consequential proceedings is, hereby, quashed. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) March 29, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 3
