IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-10878 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision : 3.12.2009 Kewaljit Singh and another ….. Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and another ….. Respondents Present: Mr. Veneet Sharma, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. P.S. Sidhu, Addl. A.G., Punjab. Mr. Deepak Aggarwal, Advocate for the private respondent No.2. *** S.S. SARON, J. The vakalatnama filed by Mr. Deepak Aggarwal, Advocate on behalf of respondent No.2 along with affidavit of Kulwinder Singh (respondent No.2) in Court today is taken on record. In terms of the affidavit, it is stated that the matter has been compromised and the deponent has no objection to the quashing of the FIR. It is brought to my notice by the learned State counsel that the trial in the case is complete and the case is now fixed for pronouncing the order. Therefore, at this stage, it would be inappropriate to quash the FIR. However, the factum of compromise may be taken into consideration at the time of sentencing the accused in case a finding of guilt is recorded. In view of the above, the present petition is dismissed. (S.S. SARON) December 3, 2009 JUDGE amit
