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 appellant to approach this Court again for quashing of the proceedings. For a period of three months, the proceedings initiated in pursuance of Sessions Trial No. 1089 of 2023; State of U.P. Vs.
