CRM-M-50285-2024 ANALYSIS & REASONING:
5.
An analysis of the FIR reveals that there are specific allegations against the petitioners that they had also slapped Sarabjit Kaur (daughter of the complainant). However, the petitioners have neither arraigned her as respondent in this case nor her statement has been recorded before the trial Court/Illaqa Magistrate. 6.
Since all the victims did not state their no objection to the compromise and also the reasons which led to the compromise, as such this Court cannot proceed further in this matter.
7.
Given above, the petition is dismissed. However, liberty is reserved to the petitioners to file a fresh petition and there would be no necessity to re-examine the complainant-victim(s) and the accused, whose statements stand recorded. The copies of the statements along with report would suffice. Petition dismissed in the terms mentioned above, with liberty reserved.
