SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS UKHC010113502026 WPCRL/1229/2026 Aryan Tyagi and Others --Petitioners Versus State Of Uttarakhand And Others --Respondents Hon’ble Alok Mahra, J. Mr. Akshay Pradhan, Advocate for the petitioners. 2. Mr. Akshay Latwal, A.G.A. for the State. 3. Mr. Vishwaketu Vaidhya, learned counsel for the complainant. 4. By means of this writ petition, petitioners have sought quashing of F.I.R./Case Crime No. 0123 of 2026, under Sections 115(2), 125, 351(3) and 352 of BNS and Sections 5/27 of the Arms Act, registered at Police Station Bhadrabad, District Haridwar. 5. In this case, all the petitioners and respondent no. 3 are college-going students while respondent no. 2 is father of respondent no. 3. Due to some altercation, scuffle took place between them. It is informed that chargesheet has been filed against the petitioners, but, cognizance has not been taken till date. 6. Now, a compounding application, jointly signed by learned counsel for respondent nos. 2 and 3 and learned counsel for the petitioners, has been filed duly supported by affidavits of the parties. 7. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the parties have now entered into a settlement, therefore, the matter needs to be compounded. 8. Learned counsel for respondent nos. 2 and 3 submits that dispute has now been amicably settled between the parties, therefore, his client wants to close the matter to ensure that peace is restored. 9. Today, petitioners and the complainant are present before this Court through video conferencing, who are duly identified by their counsels. 10. Both the parties also made a statement that, in view of the settlement, they want to close the matter. 11. Having regard to the nature of offence and also considering the broad guidelines issued by Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of Gian Singh Vs State of Punjab reported in (2012) 10 SCC 303 and Narinder Singh & others Vs State of Punjab & another reported in (2014) 6 SCC 466, request of the petitioner deserves to be acceded to. 12. Since the parties have entered into a compromise, therefore, possibility of the trial resulting into conviction of the accused is remote and bleak and, that being so, continuation of criminal proceedings would visit the accused with great oppression, prejudice and injustice. Rather, it would tantamount to abuse of process of law. Ends of justice would be met if criminal proceedings are put to an end, because this would allow the parties to translate their decision to live in peace in the reality. Resolution of a dispute by way of a compromise between two warring groups, therefore, should attract the immediate and prompt attention of a Court which should endeavour to give full effect to the same unless such compromise is abhorrent to lawful composition of the society or would promote savagery. 13. In view of above discussion, the writ petition is allowed. Consequently, F.I.R./Case Crime No. 0123 of 2026, under Sections 115(2), 125, 351(3) and 352 of BNS and Sections 5/27 of the Arms Act, registered at Police Station Bhadrabad, District Haridwar, is hereby quashed along with all the proceedings emanating therefrom. 14. Compounding application is, accordingly, disposed of. (Alok Mahra J.) 10.08.2026 Ujjwal
