Inderjit Singh, J. - (1.) THIS petition has been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. praying for quashing of FIR No. 81 dated 24.7.2013 (Annexure -P. 1) registered for the offences under Sections 406, 498 -A and 120 -B IPC at Police Station Mamdot, District Ferozepur and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom in view of the compromise dated 25.11.2013 (Annexure -P. 2). The marriage of petitioner No. 1 Jagdish Singh was solemnized with complainant -Raj Rani in the year 2006. However, due to temperamental differences between the parties, matrimonial dispute arose and the above said FIR was registered for the above mentioned offences against the petitioner and his family members and relatives. Now with the intervention of family members, relatives, friends and well wishers, both the parties have agreed to settle their differences, disputes and have resolved to put an end to all the proceedings. A copy of Panchayati compromise dated 25.11.2013 was executed between the parties, which has been placed on record.
(2.) KEEPING in view the fact that the parties have entered into a compromise, they were directed to appear before learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ferozepur for getting their statements recorded in support of the compromise. After doing the needful, learned Chief Judicial Magistrate has sent her report dated 12.3.2014 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 Raj Rani has stated that she has effected compromise with the accused/petitioners without any inducement, threat or pressure with the intervention of the respectables of locality. She has no objection if the above said FIR is quashed. Learned Assistant Advocate General, Punjab, 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 matrimonial 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.
(3.) I have gone through the record and have heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned Assistant Advocate General, Punjab and learned counsel for complainant -respondent No. 2.;
