The
compromise deed has been reduced in writing on 02.08.2025, which has been annexed as annexure no. 4 to this application.

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 while executing a compromise deed and there is no further grievance of the opposite parties against the present applicant, therefore, the criminal proceedings instituted against the applicant may be dropped. 6.
