(2.) COUNSEL for the petitioners submit that earlier petitioners namely, Sukhdev Singh alias Bhola and others had approached this Court, vide CRM M 6189 of 2012 for quashing of the said FIR on the basis of compromise.

Counsel for the petitioners also submits that statements of the parties except one injured Jaswant Kaur, have already been recorded before the trial Court and the same are on the file of CRM M 6189 of 2012. An extract from order dated 28.01.2013, passed by this Court, in the said petition is quoted hereinunder: - While approaching this Court for quashing of the FIR on the basis of compromise, the petitioners forgot to mention certain Sections, which were subsequently added. It would be appropriate for the petitioners to amend the petition to incorporate the Sections in the head note as well as in the prayer clause to indicate that the same were also part of the compromise. There may not be any need to record fresh statements. The statements made by the parties in the present case may be placed on record alongwith the fresh petition.
