2. The broad contours of the High Court's power to exercise extraordinary jurisdiction under Section 482 of the Cr.p.c. and Section 528 of the BNSS in respect of compromise of non-compoundable offences are laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in Gian Singh -Vs- State of Punjab and Another (2012 10 SCC 303) and other subsequent judgments. 3. The gist of facts leading to the instant case is that on account of the land dispute between the parties, it is alleged that the accused had followed the de facto complainant and also dashed him with their motorcycle and also taken away his two wheeler. Subsequently, the issue has been resolved between the parties. 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. Accordingly, this Crl.O.P. No. 17661 of 2026 stands allowed. The Crime No.213 of 2026 on the file of the 1st respondent Police stands quashed. 09-07-2026 Neutral Citation: Yes/No KKN https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
