Criminal Misc. No. M-34680 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-34680 of 2009 Date of decision : 16.08.2011 Rajinder Singh ....Petitioner V/s State of Punjab and another ....Respondents BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: None for the petitioner. Mr. L.S. Virk, DAG Punjab. Mr. M.K. Singla, Advocate for respondent No. 2. RAJAN GUPTA J. (ORAL) This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking quashing of FIR No. 52 dated 23.05.2009 registered against the petitioner under Sections 419, 420, 465, 467, 468, 471 & 120-B IPC at police station Bhadson, District Patiala on the basis of compromise along with all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom. At the time of issuance of notice of motion it was submitted before this court that dispute was between the brothers and a compromise had been arrived at between them. In view of same, FIR in question deserves to be quashed. Learned State counsel today submits that charges have been framed in the case and out of total 16 prosecution witnesses cited by the prosecution, 04 have already been examined. Criminal Misc. No. M-34680 of 2009 2 Learned counsel appearing for complainant-respondent No. 2 submits that averment before this court regarding compromise with the petitioner is totally incorrect. He submits that complainant has already stepped into the witness box as a prosecution witness. Heard. This petition was entertained primarily on the basis of compromise (Annexure P-4) which was stated to be arrived at between the petitioner and respondent No. 2. While issuing notice of motion, this court had taken note of the compromise and amicable settlement between the parties. However, the investigating agency as well as complainant, have denied the averment made in the petition as regards compromise. In view of above, no interference is called for in inherent jurisdiction of this court. The petition is devoid of merit and is hereby dismissed. August 16, 2011 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE
