This criminal miscellaneous petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C.
has been filed for quashing the criminal proceedings in the
criminal case No.104/2018, State Vs. Roopsingh pending in the
Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Bamanwas, District

Police Station Batoda, District Sawaimadhopur for offence under
Sections 323, 341, 452, 354 & 379 of I.P.C. After investigation,
the police submitted negative report against the petitioner for
offence under Sections 323, 341, 452, 354 & 379 of I.P.C. The
trial Court however took cognizance against the petitioner for
offence under Sections 354 & 452 of I.P.C.
(2 of 3) [CRLMP-979/2021]
Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the FIR in
question arises out of a dispute on a trifle incident between the
parties, who are family members leading to cross FIR, none
involving any heinous offence. He submitted that the learned trial
Court has, vide order dated 22.01.2021, declined to quash the
proceedings qua Sections 354 & 452 of I.P.C. being non-
compoundable. Relying on the compromise (Annexure 2) and
judgments of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in cases Gian Singh
versus State of Punjab & Anr. reported in JT 2012 (9) SC-
426 & Narinder Singh & Ors. versus State of Punjab & Anr.
reported in 2014 Cr.L.R. (SC) 351, he submitted that since the
matter has amicably been settled between the parties, the
proceedings under Section 354 & 452 of IPC be quashed.
Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the criminal
miscellaneous petition.
Learned counsel appearing for the complainant
acknowledging the factum of compromise between the parties,
submitted that he has no objection if the criminal proceedings
arising out of FIR in question are quashed.
Heard learned counsels for the parties and perused the
record.
A perusal of the material on record shows that the dispute
between the parties has amicably been settled by them on the
basis of compromise. In view of compromise between the parties
and the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in cases of
Gian Singh (Supra) & Narinder Singh (supra), this Court
deems it just and proper to allow this criminal miscellaneous
petition.
(3 of 3) [CRLMP-979/2021]
Resultantly, this criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed.
The criminal proceedings in the criminal case No.104/2018, State
Vs. Roopsingh pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate,
Bamanwas, District Sawaimadhopur arising out of FIR
No.119/2017 registered at Police Station Batoda, District
Sawaimadhopur for offence under Section 354 & 452 of IPC are
quashed.
