Mr. Deepak Sharma, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Mr. Deepak Bisht, learned D.A.G. for the State. 3. Ms. Chetna Latwal, learned counsel for respondent no. 2. 4. Present C-528 application is filed with the prayer to set-aside/quash the chargesheet dated 22.11.2023, summoning order dated 23.03.2024 passed by learned 1st Judicial Magistrate, Haridwar as well as the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No. 3990 of 2024 (Old No. 321/2024), State Vs. Kanchan Raj, under Section 389 of IPC, pending in the court of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Haridwar, on the basis of compromise between the parties. 5. The present case is a case of cross FIRs. Earlier, the applicant lodged an FIR against the respondent no. 2 for the offences punishable under Sections 376, 376(2)(n), 365(k), 500 and 506 of IPC, on the basis of which, a Case Crime No. 1149 of 2022 was registered at P.S.- Oshiwara, Mumbai, State of Maharashtra. It is submitted on oath that both the parties have entered into an agreement on 10.12.2025 and have agreed to withdraw all the pending cases filed against each other. The copy of the compromise is enclosed as Annexure-5. Parties have also stated that the Case Crime No. 1149 of 2022 have been compounded before the Bombay High Court. 6. Compounding application (IA/1/2025) is also filed in the matter wherein it is prayed to compound the offence between the parties under Section 389 of IPC. 7. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the parties have amicably settled their dispute and have entered into a compromise. 8. Parties are present before this Court and are duly identified by their respective counsel. Parties have also filed their respective affidavits stating the facts of compromise between them. 9. Hon’ble Supreme Court, in a catena of its judgments, has observed that in cases where because of the compromise arrived at between the parties, possibility of conviction is remote and bleak, the High Court may quash the criminal proceedings as continuation of the same would cause great prejudice and injustice to the accused. 10. Following the aforesaid ratio, present compounding application (IA/1/2025) is allowed. The offences between the parties are permitted to be compounded. As a result, the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No. 3990 of 2024 (Old No. 321/2024), State Vs. Kanchan Raj, under Section 389 of IPC, pending in the court of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Haridwar, are hereby quashed qua the applicant. FIR and charge-sheet filed pursuant thereto stand quashed. 11. C-528 application stands disposed of in the aforesaid terms. (Alok Mahra J.) 13.02.2026 Ujjwal
