Learned A.G.A. appearing for the State has no objection to the contentions aforesaid. 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. 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. 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 applicants to approach this Court again for quashing of the proceedings. For a period of three months, the proceedings of the Criminal Case No.1211 of 2021, State Vs. Puttan and others, arising out of Case Crime No.071 of 2018 under Section 498-A, 494, 323, 504, 506, 120-B and 3/4 D.P. Act Police Station Mahila Thana, District Gonda, shall remain stayed so far as the applicants are concerned.
