It is well settled that in appropriate cases criminal proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise by invoking inherent powers enshrined under Section 482 CrPC.

The compromise filed by the parties before the trial court, has already been verified by the court concerned. Considering aforesaid facts of the matter, it would be in the interest of justice that the impugned proceedings be quashed. 8.
