This Criminal Original Petition seeks to quash the F.I.R. in Crime No.0176 of 2026 on the file of the R-4 Soundarapandianar Angadi Police Station, Chennai for alleged offences under Sections 126(2), 296(b), 115(2), 351(3) of B.N.S. on the ground of compromise between the parties. The parties are present before the court and, on examination, stand by their compromise and do not want the case to proceed further. 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 are that while the defacto complainant was attending his relative’s funeral procession, the accused entered into a wordy quarrel and threatened to kill the defacto complainant. 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. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 18186 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 5.
