The High Court, therefore, having regard to the nature of the offence and the fact that parties have amicably settled their dispute and the victim has willingly consented to the nullification of criminal proceedings, can quash such proceedings in exercise of its inherent powers under Section 482 Cr.P.C., even if the offences are non- compoundable.” 5. In view of the position of law laid down by the Hon’ble Apex Court in aforementioned case, and considering the personal nature of dispute, which has been amicably settled between parties, this Court deems it just and proper to allow the present misc. petition. Compromise is taken on record. 6. Considering the aforementioned, the present criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed and the FIR No. 600/2024 registered at Police Station Kotwali Jhunjhunu with all consequential proceedings, are hereby quashed and set aside. 7. Accordingly, the instant petition is allowed. Pending application(s), if any, stand disposed of. (SAMEER JAIN),J Pooja /626
