Since the offences stated above are not compoundable offences, this Court can exercise its power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings as both the parties are appeared and stated that they settled the matter and the offences punishable under Section 294(b), 417 and under Section 3 (i) (xii) of SCs and STs (POA) Act, 1989, allegedly committed by the petitioner are almost identical allegations, but the dispute is settled at the intervention of elders.

Crl.P.No.16887of 2016 MSM,J it is a fit case to permit the petitioner and respondent No.2 to compound the offences.
