The said FIR was registered on a complaint filed by Respondent No. 2. 4.

the present FIR.

5.

The present petition is filed on the ground that the matter is amicably settled between the parties by way of Memorandum of Understanding dated 24.08.2024, on their own free will, without any threat, force, coercion, misrepresentation or influences. 6.

The parties are present in person in Court and have been duly identified by the Investigating Officer. 7.

Respondent No.2, on being asked, states that he has been adequately compensated and he is satisfied with the same. 8.

He states that he no longer wishes to pursue any proceedings arising out of the present FIR and has no objection if the proceedings are quashed.

9.

Offences under Sections 323/341 of the IPC are compoundable in nature.

10.

Keeping in view the fact that the parties have amicably entered into a settlement, this Court feels that no purpose would be served by relegating the parties to the learned Trial Court for filing an application to compound the offence. 11.

In view of the above, FIR No. 607/2022 and all consequential proceedings arising therefrom are quashed. 12.

The present petition is allowed in the aforesaid terms. 13.

Pending application also stands disposed of.
