2026:UHC:2754 SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS C528 No.707 of 2026 Hon’ble Alok Mahra, J. Mr. S.R.S. Gill, Advocate for the applicants. Mr. V.S. Pal, A.G.A. for the State of Uttarakhand. Mr. Kundan Singh, Advocate for respondent nos.2 to 4. 2. Present C-528 application is filed with the prayer to set-aside/quash the charge sheet dated 26.12.2022, cognizance/summoning order dated 29.09.2023 and the entire proceedings of Sessions Trial No.207 of 2023, pending in the Court of learned 2nd Additional District & Sessions Judge, Kashipur, District Udham Singh Nagar on the basis of compromise between the parties. 3. As per the First Information Report, it is alleged that the applicants fired a gunshot at Joga Singh, which hit near his forehead. However, learned counsel for the applicants contends that no firearm was discharged at the time of the alleged incident and that only a scuffle ensued between the parties. It is further submitted that the injuries sustained by the injured are simple in nature, which is duly corroborated by the medical report placed on record. 4. Compounding application (I.A. No.1 of 2025) is also filed in the matter wherein it is prayed to compound the offence between the parties. 5. Parties are present before the Court 2026:UHC:2754 today who have been duly identified by their learned counsel. Parties have already filed the affidavits in support of the compounding application, affirming the factum of compromise arrived at between the parties. 6. It is jointly submitted that all disputes and differences between the parties have been amicably settled and resolved. 7. Learned State Counsel vehemently opposed the compounding application. 8. 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. 9. Following the aforesaid ratio, present compounding application is allowed. The offences between the parties are permitted to be compounded. As a result, entire proceedings of Sessions Trial No.207 of 2023, pending in the Court of learned 2nd Additional District & Sessions Judge, Kashipur, District Udham Singh Nagar, are hereby quashed. 10. C-528 application stands disposed of. (Alok Mahra, J.) 17.04.2026 Arpan
