( The Supreme Court in Parbatbhai Aahir @ Parbatbhai Bhimsinhbhai Karmur and others v. State of Gujarat and another, 2017 AIR (SC) 4843 laid down the broad principles governing the exercises of powers of quashing of FIR. It was held that the power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is to be exercised by the High Court to secure the ends of justice, to prevent abuse of any process of law and in cases where in view of the compromise the possibility of conviction is remote and continuation of proceeding will cause oppression and prejudice. 4

1 # No useful purpose would be served by continuing with the trial, as chances of conviction are bleak. To meet the ends of justice, the FIR mentioned above and all consequential proceedings arising therefrom are quashed.
[9] The petition is allowed.
