Crl. Misc. No.M-28426 of 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Decided on: December 07, 2010. Crl. Misc. No.M-28426 of 2010. Jasbir Singh .. Petitioner VERSUS The State of Punjab and others. . Respondents *** CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE M.M.S.BEDI PRESENT Mr.Arun Abrol, Advocate, for the petitioner. Ms.Gagan Mohini, AAG., Punjab. Mr.Parminder Singh, Advocate, for respondent Nos.2 & 3. *** M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) At this stage, on the request of counsel for the parties file taken up again. The petitioner seeks the quashing of FIR No.51 dated 11.04.2009, under Sections 304-A, 279, 337 & 427 IPC, registered at Police Station, Dhariwal, on the basis of compromise. The said FIR was registered at the instance of . . . 1 Crl. Misc. No.M-28426 of 2010 respondent No9.3, Sardari Lal alleging that his sister-in-law i.e., the wife of respondent No.2, Tilak Raj had died in an accident caused by the petitioner due to his negligent driving. Respondent No.3, claims himself to be an eye witness. The parties were directed to inform this Court whether any compensation has been paid to the other heirs of the deceased Manjit Kaur. It has been informed that on account of accidental death of Manjit Kaur compensation of Rs.2,74,000/- has been awarded to Rakesh, Surinderpal and Vinod Kumar sons of the deceased. The matter has been compromised. A copy of the compromise has also been placed on record. Sardari Lal complainant and Tilak Raj are present in the Court along with the petitioner. They have admitted that the matter has been compromised. In view of the compromise having been effected, the chances of conviction are remote. As per the judgment in case Kulwinder Singh and others Vs. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.), Page-1052, the FIR on the basis of compromise can be quashed by allowing the compounding of non-compoundable offence also. I deem it not unjustified to permit the quashing of FIR subject to payment of some additional compensation to the three sons of the deceased. Following the judgment in case Kulwinder Singh and others, (Supra), the above said FIR and all the criminal proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed subject to the condition that a sum of Rs.30,000/- (Rupees Thirty Thousand Only) . . . 2 Crl. Misc. No.M-28426 of 2010 will be deposited by the petitioner in the trial Court within a period of one month. In case the said amount is deposited, the trial Court will summon Rakesh, Surinderpal and Vinod Kumar sons of Tilak Raj and release the sum of Rs.30,000/- to them. Disposed of.
