Later on, the complainant-Bharat found his mobile and he submitted an affidavit in favour of the petitioner stating that his mobile was snatched by some bikers whom he did not identify and that he did not wish to prosecute the petitioner. Hence, a prayer has been made to quash the proceedings of the impugned F.I.R. on the basis of the compromise between the parties. [2026:RJ-JP:28390] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-376/2023] 3. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor opposes the prayer and submitted that after investigation, charge-sheet has already been submitted, hence, under these circumstances, interference of this Court is not warranted. 4. Heard and considered the submissions made at the Bar and perused the material available on record. 5. Looking to the fact that the offence under Section 382 IPC is petty in nature and also looking to the fact that the matter pertains to theft of mobile which was recovered at a later point of time and now, the complainant does not want to prosecute the petitioner and he has submitted a compromise in his favour and applying the principle of law as laid down by the Apex Court in the case of Gian Singh Vs. State of Punjab & Anr. reported in (2012) 10 SCC 303 & State of Madhya Pradesh Vs. Laxmi Narayan & Ors., reported in (2019) 5 SCC 688, this Court deems it just and appropriate to invoke the inherent powers of this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C. 6. Accordingly, the instant criminal misc. petition stands allowed. The proceedings arising out of the impugned F.I.R. No.234/2021, registered at the Police Station Atalband, District Bharatpur for the offence punishable under Section 382 IPC, stand quashed qua the petitioner in terms of the compromise arrived at between the parties. 7.
