Quashing of the FIR has been sought on the basis of compromise arrived at between the accused and the complainant. In support of the compromise, affidavit of Seetal Ram – respondent-complainant has been annexed as Annexure P-3. Written statement to the present petition has been filed by Satinder Pal Singh, PPS Deputy Superintendent of Police (Detective), SBS Nagar. In the preliminary submission made, it has been averred as under:- Crl. Misc. No.19794-M of 2009 -2- “That in this case, on the basis of compromise entered into between the petitioners and the complainant Seetal Ram, cancellation report was prepared on 14.7.2009, and the same is being submitted in the learned court for approval after exhausting departmental channels. In the face of the said cancellation report, the present petition has been rendered as infructuous and thus, is liable to dismissed on this short ground.” Since, in the present case, the investigating agency itself has taken into consideration the compromise, and came to the conclusion that cancellation report is to be submitted, quashing of FIR is not called for. However, the investigating agency is directed to submit the cancellation report within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order in the court of concerned Illaqa Magistrate who shall take a decision thereupon within a period of two months thereafter.
