ORAL ORDER
(PER: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH RAI K)
This petition is filed under Section 528 of BNSS to
quash the proceeding in Crime No.57/2025 dated
02.04.2025 filed by the Jalhalli Police Station against the
petitioners/accused Nos.1 to 4 for the offences under
Section 85, 115(2), 351(2) & 352 read with Section 3(5)
of BNSS, 2023.
2. The factual matrix of the prosecution case is
that respondent No.2 being the wife of petitioner No.1,
their marriage solemnized in the year 2016, out of
wedlock two children were born, thereafter, the accused
No.1 started to quarrel with her by suspecting her fidelity.
As such, she has lodged the complaint. On the strength of
the said compliant, FIR came to be registered as stated
supra.
3. Presently, the parties have settled their dispute
amicably and today respondent No.2 is present before this
NC: 2025:KHC-K:2737
Court along with petitioner Nos.1 to 4/accused Nos.1 to 4
and she states that they both settled the dispute amicably
and she is ready to join petitioner No.1. The petitioner
No.1 is ready to take her back to the matrimonial home.
In such circumstance, relying on the judgment of Apex
Court in the case of GIAN SINGH Vs. STATE OF
PUNJAB AND ANOTHER1, though the offence is not
compoundable in nature, I am of the considered the view
that dispute emerged between the family members, the
proceedings need not be continued. Accordingly, I proceed
to pass the following.
ORDER
i. The petition is allowed.
ii. The FIR and further proceedings in Crime
No.57/2025 for the offence punishable
under Sections 85, 115(2), 351(2) & 352
read with Section 3(5) of BNSS, 2023 is
(2012) 10 Supreme Court Cases 303
NC: 2025:KHC-K:2737
hereby quashed is so far as petitioners are
concerned.
