3. The gist of facts leading to the instant case is that, on account of previous enmity arising out of a money transaction between the parties, the accused are said to have verbally abused PW1 to PW3 and hit them with their hands, and also threatened to eliminate them. 4. Thus, it can be seen that this matter is a fit case for the exercise of extraordinary jurisdiction to quash the case on compromise. 5.
