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 gist of the facts leading to the registration of the case is that an enmity existed between the second respondent/de facto complainant's side and the accused side arising from a love affair, which led to a wordy quarrel and the subsequent occurrence. Subsequently, the parties have since 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. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 21360 of 2026 p. 3 5.
