(ORAL) Mohinder Paul Singh has filed this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (in short, Cr. P.C.), for quashing FIR No.21 dated 20.04.2011 (Annexure P-1) under Sections324, 326, 341 and 34 IPC registered at Police Station Old Shalley District Gurdaspur, in view of compromise Annexure P-2 effected with injured- complainant-respondent No.2 Ajai Paul Singh and respondent No.3 Dilbagh Singh also injured person. Respondent No.2 and 3 are present in person in the court as identified by their counsel. They admit the compromise Annexure P-2 and state that they have no objection if the FIR is quashed. Learned counsel for respondent No.2 and 3 also makes statement to the same effect. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the Criminal Misc. No.M-20519 of 2011 -2- case file. 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(2) Law Herald (Punjab & Haryana) 2225. In the instant case, parties have effected compromise. Grievous injury is stated to be not on vital part as submitted by counsel for the petitioner. The parties want to live in peace. Accordingly, it is a fit case in which the FIR should be quashed in view of compromise between the parties. In view of the aforesaid, the instant petition is allowed and impugned FIR Annexure P-1 is quashed along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom. ( L. N. MITTAL) JUDGE 29th August, 2011 'raj'
