Present application has been preferred with a prayer to quash charge sheet dated 20.4.2022 as well as cognizance order dated 14.7.2022 and entire criminal proceeding of Case no. 1112 of 2023 (State vs. Harkesh and others) arising out of Case Crime no. 59 of 2022 under sections 323, 324, 504, 308 IPC, PS- Dhanari, District Sambhal. 3. In compliance of earlier order dated 28.7.2025 passed by this Court, compromise verification report has already been received from learned Civil Judge (S.D.)/Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Sambhal at Chandausi and the same is appended to order sheet wherein it is mentioned that compromise has been verified on dated 13.8.2025 in presence of both the parties. 4. Sri Arvind Kumar Sahu, learned counsel for opposite party no. 2 and learned AGA for the State showed no objection to aforesaid contention of learned counsel for applicant. 5. From perusal of records, it transpires that the parties have amicably settled their dispute and fact of compromise has been confirmed and admitted by learned counsel for the parties and it has been submitted that there would be no harm and error and it would be in the interest of justice that the Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Mahendra Singh Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : Arvind Kumar Sahu, G.A. Harkesh And 3 Others .....Applicant(s) State of U.P. and Another .....Opposite Party(s) proceedings may be quashed in light of the compromise. 6. A three-Judge Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Gian Singh v. State of Punjab & another, (2012) 10 SCC 303, has observed in para 58 of the said judgment that where the High Court quashes a criminal proceeding having regard to the fact that the dispute between the offender and the victim has been settled although the offences are not compoundable, it does so as in its opinion, continuation of criminal proceedings will be an exercise in futility and justice in the case demands that the dispute between the parties is put to an end and peace is resorted; securing the ends of justice being the ultimate guiding factor. 7. In the case of Madhavrao Jiwajirao Scindia v. Sambhajirao Chandraojirao Angre, [(1988) 1 SCC 692], Hon'ble the Apex Court has also observed that where matters are also of civil nature i.e. matrimonial, family disputes, etc. the Court may consider "special facts", "special feature" and quash the criminal proceeding to encourage genuine settlement of disputes between the parties. 8. In view of the aforementioned facts and circumstances, the entire proceeding of Case no. 1112 of 2023 (State vs. Harkesh and others) arising out of Case Crime no. 59 of 2022 under sections 323, 324, 504, 308 IPC, PS- Dhanari, District Sambhal, are hereby quashed, only in respect of applicants namely Harkesh, Chandrapal, Bhudev and Munkesh. 9. Accordingly, the present application stands allowed. 10. The parties may file the copy of this order before the court concerned within two weeks from today. 11. If at all, opposite party no. 2 feels that he/she has been duped or betrayed, then in that event, he/she may file recall application explaining the reasons for filing the said application.
