The Criminal Original Petition has been filed to quash the FIR in Crime No.32 of 2019, on the file of the first respondent police.
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 petitioner and the second respondent and also by their respective counsel. The petitioner and the second respondent were also present in person before this Court and they were identified by Mr.S.Santha, Sub Inspector of Police. 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 before the respondent police. 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 https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 1/2

The said submission is placed on record.
6. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is allowed and as a sequel, the F.I.R in Crime No.32 of 2019, on the file of the first respondent police, is quashed and the terms of joint compromise memo shall form part and parcel of this order.
