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 the parties are related to each other. On a previous occasion, a wordy quarrel ensued, during which the accused is said to have assaulted the defacto complainant and his father. Subsequently, it is stated that they ironed out their differences thorugh family members. This is a case and counter-case. 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. 17944 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 5.
