Learned counsel for the applicant submits that due to certain misunderstanding, the instant FIR was lodged against the applicant. He added that later on, the parties sat together and have amicably settled their disputes, which has been reduced in writing. Thereafter, the applicant filed an Application U/s 482 No. 12318 of 2023 wherein this Court vide order dated 18.12.2023 had directed the court below to verify the said compromise deed and in compliance thereof, the compromise deed was verified on 20.04.2024. He submits that now there is no dispute in between the parties and they have settled their dispute.

Learned counsel appearing for opposite parties nos. 2 and 3 has also supported the version of the learned counsel for the applicant and submits that parties have amicably settled their dispute and the opposite parties nos. 2 and 3 have no grievance, hence, criminal proceedings against the applicant may be dropped. Learned counsel for the State has no objection to the submissions aforesaid. Considering the aforesaid submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, I find that compromise has been entered into between the parties on 11.12.2023 and said compromise has been verified on 20.04.2024 and, now, as per the statement of learned counsel for the parties, they do not want to press the aforementioned criminal proceedings against the applicants.
