Order
28/11/2023
1. The instant criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed
under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C. seeking quashing of the First
Information Report No.184/2022 registered at the Police Station
Aburoad Sadar, District Sirohi for the offences under Sections 147,
148, 149, 452, 323 and 307 of the IPC.
2. It is submitted by counsel for the petitioners that the parties
have settled their dispute by way of compromise. Learned counsel
has relied upon the judgment passed by the Hon'ble Supreme
Court in the matter of Gian Singh Vs. State of Punjab & Anr.
reported in 2012(10) SCC 303 and prayed that the FIR pending
against the petitioners be quashed in view of the compromise
between the parties.
[2023:RJ-JD:41013] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-7431/2023]
3. Learned counsel for the complainant-respondent has admitted
the fact of compromise between the parties and expresses his
inclination in favour of quashing of the FIR on the ground of
compromise.
4. Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the petition.
5. Though the impugned FIR was registered for the offences under
Sections 147, 148, 149, 452, 323 and 307 of the IPC but after
competition of the investigation, the police has not found the
offence under Section 307 of the IPC proved and the police has
chalked out charge-sheet only for the offences under Sections
147, 148, 323/149 of the IPC which is yet to be filed in the Court
concerned. Since the parties have already settled the dispute out
of the Court, no fruitful purpose would be served by allowing
continuance of the criminal proceeding in the case at hand.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the present case and
the fact that the parties have settled their dispute by way of
compromise and also following the judgment passed by the
Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of Gian Singh (supra), the
instant criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed and the entire
proceedings in connection with the First Information Report
mentioned above and all consequential proceedings, qua the
petitioners, are hereby quashed.
6. The stay application also stands disposed of.
