I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record carefully. Both the petitioners are brother and sister. The FIR was lodged by petitioner No.1 Sukhminder Kaur Shina alias Mohinder Kaur Shina against her brother Bhupinder Singh-petitioner No.2. Both petitioners have appeared before this Court and stated that they have amicably settled the dispute and entered into compromise (Annexure P-2). It has been stated by petitioner No.1 that she does not want to proceed further with this case and that FIR and consequential proceedings be 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 offences are not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh vs. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Hence, in the interest of harmonious relations between the parties, Criminal Misc.No. M- 6711 of 2010 -2- as the parties are close relatives, the present petition is accepted and FIR No.235 dated 11.9.2008, under Sections 420,465,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Ferozepur (Annexure P-1) qua petitioner No.2-Bhupinder Singh alongwith all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, is quashed.
