Punjab and Haryana High Court: <\/strong>A Bench of Arvind Singh Sangwan, J., quashed the FIR on the basis of the compromise entered into by the parties.<\/p>\n

A petition was filed by the petitioner for quashing the FIR for the offences punishable under Sections 377, 34 of Penal Code, 1908 and all the subsequent proceedings arising therefrom.\u00a0 The ground for quashing the FIR mentioned was with respect to the compromise entered by the party. The Court revealed that they have voluntarily entered into a compromise and the Court is satisfied that the parties have amicably settled their dispute without any fear, pressure, threat or coercion and out of their free will. Hence the Application for quashing of FIR was filed.<\/p>\n

The Learned counsel for the petitioner, Piyush Sharma, submitted apart from the amicable settlement between the parties there was no other criminal case pending and none of the petitioners is a proclaimed offender. Reliance was placed upon the case of Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India, <\/em>(2018) 10 SCC 1<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Learned counsel for the respondent, M.S. Nagra, has not disputed the fact that the parties have arrived at a settlement with intent to give burial to their differences.<\/p>\n

The Court after noting the submissions of both the parties held that \u201csince the parties have arrived at a compromise and have decided to live in peace, no useful purpose would be served in allowing the criminal proceedings to continue.\u201d<\/em>[Pipal Singh v. State of Punjab, 2019 SCC OnLine P&H 450<\/b><\/a>, decided on 29-04-2019]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
