Nasim Ahmad Afroz And 3 Others .....Applicant(s) State of U.P. and Another .....Opposite Party(s) having regard to the fact that the dispute between the offender and the victim has been settled although the offences are not compoundable, it does so as in its opinion, continuation of criminal proceedings will be an exercise in futility and justice in the case demands that the dispute between the parties is put to an end and peace is restored; securing the ends of justice being the ultimate guiding factor. 6.
