RAM CHAND GUPTA J.(Oral) Both the aforesaid petitions have been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioners of both the petitions for quashing of FIR No.117 dated 10.6.2008, under Sections 420,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Ludhiana (Annexure P-1) on the basis of compromise Annexure P-3 (in Crl. Misc. No.M-13721 of 2010) and for quashing of FIR No. 27 dated 09.2.2009, under Sections 420,465,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Division No.5, Ludhiana (Annexure P-1) on the basis of compromise Annexure P-2 (in Crl. Misc. No.M-13406 of 2010). Criminal Misc.No. M- 13406 of 2010 -2- I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record carefully. It has been contended by learned counsel for the parties that the parties are closely related with each other and that the dispute was regarding the estate of Harnek Singh, who died issueless and two separate Wills, allegedly executed by deceased Harnek Singh were set up by both the parties and regarding the genuineness of both the Wills, two different FIRs were registered. It is further contended that now with the intervention of respectable persons and relatives from both the sides, the dispute has been settled between the parties vide compromise, on the basis of which civil suits have also been decided. 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, being close relative, the present petitions are accepted and FIR No.117 dated 10.6.2008, under Sections 420,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Sadar, Ludhiana (Annexure P-1) and FIR No. 27 dated 09.2.2009, under Sections 420,465,467,468,471 and 120-B IPC, registered at Police Station Division No.5, Ludhiana (Annexure P-1) alongwith all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, are quashed. The petitions are disposed of accordingly. May 18, 2010 ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) vj JUDGE
