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 reported in (2012 10 SCC 303) and other subsequent judgments. 3. The background facts leading to the present case are that in a real estate transaction between the parties, the second respondent/de facto complainant’s land was allegedly mortgaged clandestinely by the https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL.OP.No.18609 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 petitioners/accused to obtain a loan. Further, certain sums of money were also obtained from the de facto complainant. It is now submitted that the bank’s entire dues have been liquidated and the title documents have been retrieved from the bank. The de facto complainant has also received her entire sale consideration. Consequently, the parties have amicably resolved their disputes and ironed out their differences. 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. 5. Accordingly, this Crl.O.P.No.18609 of 2026 stands allowed. The final report in C.C.No.619 of 2025 pending on the file of the Judicial Magistrate Court No.II, Tambaram, is hereby quashed.
