Sections 66(E), 67 and 67A of the Information Technology Act, 2000, 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 is that both the accused and the de facto complainant are young in age, they exchange the messages and pictures in the mobile phone and thereafter, it is alleged that the accused said to have threatened the de facto complainant. Subsequently, the parties have ironed out the differences between 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. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 18523 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 5.
