vehicle who claimed that the petitioners had assaulted him and, thereafter, they entered his house and touched his wife, inappropriately. 3. Charge-sheet has already been filed. 4. However, in the interregnum, both the parties have amicably resolved all their disputes and have executed a Compromise Deed dated 20.02.2026. 5. Copy of such Compromise Deed has been placed on record. 6. It is in the abovesaid backdrop that quashing is being sought. 7. Respondent Nos. 2 & 3 are present in-person and are duly identified by investigating officer as well as by their counsel. 8. In order to understand and comprehend the entire factual backdrop, the Court deemed it appropriate to have interaction with respondent Nos. 2 & 3 in Chamber. 9. When asked, they both reiterated the terms of the settlement as recorded in Compromise Deed and stated that they would have ‘no objection’ if FIR in question is quashed. They submit that the settlement is without any monetary consideration or any condition. They submit that the incident had occurred in the heat of the moment which led to an unsavoury incident between the parties and now the petitioners have, even, apologised to them.
They have entered into the abovesaid settlement without any monetary consideration or any condition and out of their own free will, without any coercion and influence from any corner whatsoever. 10. Keeping in mind the overall facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the parties have amicably settled their disputes, this Court is of the considered view that the continuation of the criminal proceedings would serve no useful purpose, especially when the parties have decided to put the unpleasant incident behind them and move ahead in their respective lives.
