Nurpur Bedi, District Rupnagar, Annexure P1, and all other consequential proceedings arising therefrom on the basis of compromise, Annexure P2, having been entered into between the parties. CRM No.M-9156 of 2010 I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the record. It has been stated by learned counsel for the parties that the dispute between the parties has been settled due to intervention of respectable persons and relatives. Respondent No.2 – complainant also appeared in person with his counsel and filed reply by way of affidavit admitting the factum of compromise and stating that he is having no objection if the FIR and consequential proceedings are quashed. 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 v. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Since the parties have amicably settled the matter and compromise has been effected between them due to intervention of respectable persons, the present petition is allowed and the impugned FIR No.107, dated 17.12.2009 under Sections 420/34 IPC registered at P.S. Nurpur Bedi, District Rupnagar, Annexure P1, alongwith all consequential proceedings qua petitioner - Amrik Singh is, hereby, quashed. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) May 3, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
