HON'BLE SHREE PRAKASH SINGH, J.
Mr. Sushil Kumar Sharma, Advocate has put in appearance by filing Vakalatnama on behalf of the opposite party no. 2 and the same is taken on record.
Heard learned counsel for the applicants, learned A.G.A. for the State, Mr. Sushil Kumar Sharma, learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 and perused the record.
By means of the instant application, the applicants have prayed for quashing of the entire proceeding in Case No. 6478 of 2016, Crime No. 11/2005, U/s 147/384/506 of IPC, Police Station-Mishrikh, District-Sitpur, styled as State Vs Kamrul and others, as well as impugned chargesheet dated 14.3.2005.
Learned counsel appearing for the applicants submits that due to some misunderstanding the instant FIR was lodged and thereafter, the parties sat together and they have settled their dispute and that too, has been reduced in writing as a compromise deed dated 06.03.2025. Adding his arguments, he submits that now the parties have put their all disputes at rest by way of executing compromise deed and thus further criminal proceedings against the present applicants would be a futile exercise and amount to harassment of the applicants.
Adding his arguments, he also submits that this Hon'ble Court vide order dated 16.09.2025 has referred the matter for compromise verification in Application U/S 482 Cr.P.C. No. 7844 of 2025 and in compliance of the aforesaid order, both the parties have appeared before the trial court and the compromise deed dated 06.03.2025 has been verified in presence of all concerned parties and the order of verification was passed on 09.01.2026 by the learned learned trial court. He next added that now the matter has been compromised in between the parties, and as such the criminal proceedings against the applicants may be quashed.
On the other hand, learned counsel for the opposite party no.2 has also supported the version of the applicants and submits that the parties have entered into compromise deed and now there is no dispute in between the parties and thus the criminal proceeding against the applicant may be dropped.
On the other hand, learned AGA appearing for the State has no objection to the contentions aforesaid.
Considering the aforesaid submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, I find that compromise has been entered into between the parties on 06.03.2025 and said compromise has been verified on 05.08.2023 and, now, as per the statement of learned counsel for the parties, they do not want to press the aforementioned criminal proceedings against the applicants.
In view of the above, as the applicants and opposite parties have entered into compromise on 06.03.2025 and no grievance remains to be agitated and as such, further criminal proceedings in the aforementioned criminal case are liable to be set aside in view of the Judgements of the Apex Court rendered in B.S. Joshi and others Vs. State of Haryana and another (2003)4 SCC 675; Nikhil Merchant Vs. Central Bureau of Investigation[2008)9 SCC 677]; Manoj Sharma Vs. State and others ( 2008) 16 SCC 1; Gian Singh Vs. State of Punjab (2012) 10 SCC 303; and Narindra Singh and others Vs. State of Punjab ( 2014) 6 SCC 466.
Resultantly, the entire criminal proceedings against the applicants in Case No. 6478 of 2016, Crime No. 11/2005, U/s 147/384/506 of IPC, Police Station-Mishrikh, District-Sitpur, styled as State Vs Kamrul and others,are hereby quashed.
The compromise deed shall be part of this order.
The application is allowed accordingly.
Consequences to follow.
