2026:UHC:2842 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.746 of 2026 Hon’ble Alok Mahra, J. Mr. Mohit Kumar Kashyap, Advocate for the applicants. Mr. V.S. Pal, A.G.A. for the State of Uttarakhand. Mr. Anuj Singh Kunjwal, Advocate for respondent nos.2 to 7. 2. Present C-528 application is filed with the prayer to set-aside/quash the charge sheet dated 18.08.2018, cognizance/summoning order dated 28.09.2020 and the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No.457 of 2020, pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Jaspur, District Udham Singh Nagar on the basis of compromise between the parties. 3. 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. 4. Parties are present before the Court today, who have been duly identified by their respective learned counsel. Respondent no.2 joined the proceedings through Video Conferencing. It is submitted that the parties have already filed affidavits in support of the compounding application, affirming the factum of compromise arrived at between the parties. 5. It is jointly submitted that all disputes and differences between the parties have been amicably settled and 2026:UHC:2842 resolved. 6. Learned State Counsel vehemently opposed the compounding application. 7. 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. 8. 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 Criminal Case No.457 of 2020, pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Jaspur, District Udham Singh Nagar, are hereby quashed. 9. C-528 application stands disposed of.
