Uma, J., setting aside the conviction order by the fast track Court, allows compromise between the parties.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The appellant-accused in the present case has been tried and convicted by the fast track Court against the offences punishable under Sections 324, 325, 504, 506 and 307 of Penal code, 1860<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Counsel for the complainant submitted that the dispute between the complainant and the accused has been compromised and hence the charges may be compounded and the appellant-accused be acquitted accordingly. Additional Advocate General opposed the application stating that the offences under Sections 324 and 307 IPC are not compoundable. Supreme Court decision in, <em>Yogendra Yadav v. State of Jharkhand, <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/DVz38B20\">(2014) 9 SCC 653<\/a> and <em>Gian Singh v. State of Punjab, <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/08esXBO5\">(2012) 10 SCC 303<\/a> was relied on by the counsel for the appellant, wherein it was held, <em>\u201cHigh Courts can quash criminal proceedings under section 482 even though the offence alleged is non-compoundable if parties have amicably settled their dispute and victim has no objection. Further, this would depend on the fact of each case. Offences which involve moral turpitude, grave offences like rape, murder cannot be effaced by quashing proceedings because they have harmful effect on society and are not restricted to two individuals or groups.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Further, the earlier order of the present Court was referred, where the decision in <em>S.S. Joshi v. State of Haryana, <\/em>2003 Crl. L.J. 2028 was obeyed, allowing a compromise petition by setting aside the judgment of conviction by the trial court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court while setting aside the conviction of the accused allowed the compounding of offences and ordered the deposition of fine as ordered by the trial court.[Yesaiah v.
