CRL OP No. 8391 of 2026 __________ Page2 of 4 ORDER This Criminal Original Petition seeks to quash the proceedings in PRC.No.68 of 2025 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate – III, Tiruppur in Crime No.600 of 2025 for alleged offences under Sections 49, 296(b), 118(1) altered as 49, 296(b), 118(1), 126(1), 109(1) of BNS, 2023, 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 the accused suspecting the fidelity of his wife and further suspecting that the de facto complainant had a relationship with her, hit him with a cricket stump. It is now stated that the parties have ironed out the differences between them. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
