CRM-M-28983-2017 -21st Class, Fatehgarh Sahib, recorded the statements of both the parties and submitted a report dated 05.09.2017. A perusal of the report reveals that the compromise entered into between the parties is genuine, voluntarily, without any threat, coercion or undue influence. 4.

Inasmuch as the dispute between the parties has been amicably settled and they have already entered into compromise, continuance of the prosecution would be an exercise in futility. Therefore, the aforesaid FIR and all consequent proceedings resulting therefrom are quashed.
