Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned A.G.A. for the State/respondents and perused the record. The report of the Senior Registrar of this Court dated 11.04.2025 is on record, according to which he has verified the compromise on 11.04.2025. The original compromise is on record which has been annexed as Annexure No.2 to the writ petition. Learned counsel for the parties also state that the parties have settled their dispute amicably and submitted their deed of compromise which has been duly verified by the Senior Registrar of this Court. According to the terms of compromise, parties have decided to withdraw all the cases filed by them against each other including First Information Report dated 15.02.2025 bearing Case Crime No.0083 of 2025, under Sections 191(2),115(2),352,351(3) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita,2023, Police Station Thakurganj, District Lucknow. Intent is clear, the informant - Smt.Aneeta, who is a signatory to the compromise, does not want to press the FIR, therefore, no purpose would be served in allowing the proceedings even if charge sheet has been filed before the court below to go on considering the nature of the dispute. Accordingly, the impugned FIR, which is the basis to serve consequential proceedings of investigation and thereafter filing of charge sheet, if any, is hereby quashed. Consequently, all proceedings taken consequent to the lodging of the FIR including charge sheet, if any, filed before the court below stand quashed. The writ petition is, accordingly, allowed. The Senior Registrar of this Court shall communicate this order to the court concerned for correcting its record, accordingly. Learned AGA shall communicate this order to the investigating officer.
