5. We have heard learned counsel for the parties and have carefully perused the record, including the pleadings, the reliefs sought and the documents placed on record.
6. Considering the fact that the matter is still under investigation and FIRs have been lodged against each other and further since compromise/settlement is alleged to have been entered into between the parties, but no document in this regard showing settlement/compromise has been filed by them before this court, both the petitions stand dismissed. However, the parties are at liberty to produce such document, if any, before the Investigating Officer of the case. If such document is filed, the Investigating Officer shall verify the genuineness, voluntariness and authenticity of the compromise entered into between the parties and shall thereafter submit a detailed report before the competent Court
