The Criminal Original Petition has been filed to quash the First Information Report in Crime No.323 of 2019 on the file of the first respondent Police, for the offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 298(b), 323, 324 and 506(ii) of IPC. 2.The case is still at the stage of investigation. By passage of time, the parties have decided to bury their hatchet and compromise the dispute amicably among themselves. 3.A Joint Memo of Compromise has been filed before this Court, which have been signed by the petitioners and the second respondent and also by their respective counsel. The petitioners and the second respondent were also present in person before this Court and they were identified. This Court also enquired both the parties and was satisfied that the parties have come to an amicable settlement between themselves.
4.Under such circumstances, no useful purpose will be served in keeping the First Information Report pending, even though, the offences involved are not compoundable in nature. In the light of the guidelines given by the Hon'ble Supreme Court reported in 2017 9 SCC 641-(Parbathbhai Aahir @ Parbathbhai Vs. State of Gujrath), this Court in exercise of its jurisdiction under Section 482 Cr.P.C. quashes the First Information Report in Crime No.323 of 2019.
5.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners are students and that they have depended on their parents. Therefore, they are prepared to abide by any conditions as imposed by this Court.
