In that view of the matter, even if this case is taken to its logical conclusion, it would only be an exercise in futility as the parties have already settled their differences. Therefore, no purpose would be served in wasting the time and resources of the State in pursuing this case to its pre-ordained end. It would, therefore, be better to give a quietus to the issue at this stage. 6.

Accordingly, the petition is allowed and FIR No. 0312 dated 16.06.2019 (Annexure P-1) under Section 380 IPC registered at Police Station City Fatehabad, District Fatehabad, Haryana and all the subsequent proceedings arising therefrom, on the basis of compromise dated 03.05.2025 (Annexure P-2) shall stand quashed qua the petitioner.
