2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.G.A. for the State.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner and respondent No.2 have entered into compromise and the informant is not willing to press the charges against the petitioner made in the first information report. The settlement is on record as Annexure-1 which has been verified by the learned trial court, in the presence of the parties.
The petitioner's counsel submits that since amicable settlement of the dispute has been arrived between the parties, therefore chances of conviction of the petitioners are remote and pendency of the case before the trial Court shall be of no consequence and it will be a futile exercise. He relied on a judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court reported in (2012)10 SCC 303 Gian Singh versus State of Punjab and another.
4. In view of the compromise entered into between the parties as also the case law referred to above, this petition is allowed and the proceedings of Special Trial No.142 of 2016 (supra), arising out of Case Crime No.377 of 2015 (supra) are quashed.
