The amount in question has also been received by the complainant. Compromise-deed (Annexure P2) 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.74 dated April 02nd, 2009, registered under Sections 406 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') at Police Station Phagwara City, District Kapurthala and subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, are hereby quashed.
