C528 No.808 of 2026 Hon’ble Alok Mahra, J.
Mr. Shariq Khurshid, Advocate for the applicants.
Mr. Prince Chauhan, Advocate for the respondent.
2. Present C-528 application is filed with the prayer to set-aside/quash the cognizance/summoning
order dated 05.03.2024 and the entire proceedings of Criminal Complaint Case No.6136 of 2021, pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Kashipur, District Udham Singh Nagar on the basis of compromise between the parties.
3. A compounding application (I.A. No.1 of 2026) has also been filed in the present matter praying that the offences be permitted to be compounded in view of the compromise arrived at between the parties.
4. Parties joined the proceedings through Video Conferencing, who are duly identified by their respective counsel. They have also filed their respective affidavits stating the facts of compromise between them.
5. It is jointly submitted by the parties that the dispute inter se them has been amicably settled out of court, and they have mutually resolved all differences arising therefrom. Learned counsel for the applicants further submits that the parties have decided to part ways consensually. Accordingly, they have
2026:UHC:3174 filed a petition under Section 27 of the U.C.C., before the Family Court, Kashipur. The respondent has no intention to prosecute the applicants in the present proceedings.
6. 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.
7. 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 Complaint Case No.6136 of 2021, pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Kashipur, District Udham Singh Nagar, are hereby quashed.
8. C-528 application stands disposed of.
