JUDGEMENT
Inderjit Singh, J. -
(1.) SUMIT -petitioner has filed this petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. praying for quashing of FIR No. 229 dated 5.8.2012 (Annexure -P. 1) registered for the offences under Sections 457 and 380 IPC at Police Station Beri, District Jhajjar and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom in view of the compromise (Annexure -P. 2).
(2.) THE FIR has been registered on the statement of complainant -Mahesh alleging that the complainant woke -up as he heard some sound as the door of the house was open. He saw that Sumit was running away after coming out of their room. The complainant followed him, but could not catch him. He jumped by running from the top of the roof. After coming back inside, he saw his almirah and found that his purse, passport, copy of driving licence and Rs. 4,000/ - were not there. As both the parties are residents of same area and are neighbour, therefore, with the intervention of the respectables of the society, the matter has been compromised between them. Keeping in view the fact that the parties have entered into a compromise, they were directed to appear before learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jhajjar for getting their statements recorded in support of the compromise. After doing the needful, learned Chief Judicial Magistrate has sent his report dated 20.5.2014 submitting that the compromise arrived at between the parties is without any pressure or coercion from any one and the same is genuine one. Complainant -Mahesh has stated that compromise has been effected, which is without any pressure, coercion or consideration and he has no objection if the above said FIR is quashed.
(3.) LEARNED Assistant Advocate General, Haryana, on instructions from the Investigating Officer and learned counsel for complainant -respondent No. 2 admit the factum of compromise and submit that in case the parties have indeed settled their dispute, the State would have no objection to the quashing of the FIR in view of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court.;
