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 is that the de-facto complainant and the accused were in a romantic relationship. At that time, certain pictures were also taken. When the relationship turned sour, it is alleged that the accused threatened to abuse that photograph. It is now submitted that both parties have parted their ways and move on in their life 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. 17723 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 5.
