1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A., Sri Aditya Singh, Advocate holding brief of Sri Amit Jaiswal,
learned counsel for the opposite party No.2 and perused the record. 2. The instant application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed for quashing of proceedings in Case No.2623/2017 arising out of Crime No.11/2017, under Section 506 I.P.C., Police Station Chinhat, District Lucknow pending before Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, IIIrd, Lucknow. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the instant case. He next added that under some misunderstanding, the instant F.I.R. has been lodged against the applicant and thereafter, the parties have amicably compromised their dispute. The compromise deed has been reduced in writing on 30.08.2017 which has been annexed as Annexure No.3 to the instant application. He next added that now there is no grievance in between the parties with each other and the criminal proceedings against the applicant is the futile exercise as there is no fate of trial and is amount to harassment of the applicant and thus, the criminal proceedings against the applicant may be quashed. 4. On the other hand, learned counsel appearing for the opposite parties has supported the version of the learned counsel for the applicant and submits that the parties have settled their dispute amicably through a compromise deed and there is no further grievance of the opposite parties against the present applicant and the criminal proceedings against the applicant may be dropped. 5. Learned A.G.A. appearing for the State has no objection to
the contentions aforesaid. 6. Now whether the parties have, in fact, compromised the matter or not, can best be ascertained by the court below as such compromise has to be duly verified in presence of the parties concerned before the Court. 7. Accordingly, this application is disposed of with a direction to the court concerned that, if any, such compromise is filed before it, it shall issue notices to all the signatories to the compromise requiring their personal presence and, thereafter, proceed to verify the compromise. If the aforesaid compromise is verified, a report to that effect shall be prepared by the court and the compromise will be made part of the record. 8. The court in that scenario will allow the parties to obtain certified copy of the report as well as compromise and it will be open to the applicant to approach this Court again for quashing of the proceedings. 9.
For a period of three months, the proceedings initiated in pursuance of the Case No.2623/2017 arising out of Crime No.11/2017, under Section 506 I.P.C., Police Station Chinhat, District Lucknow, shall remain stayed so far as applicant is concerned. 10. The trial Court is directed to examine the fact that whether all the parties against whom the chargesheet was filed are the parties in the compromise deed and in this respect, it shall also sent a report along with the verification order. 11. Office is directed to return the original compromise deed to the learned counsel for the applicant, if any, after taking the photocopy of the same. (Shree Prakash Singh, J.)
