The petitioners are also present in person before this Court, duly identified by their counsel Mr. Rajendra Singh. Respondent no. 3 submitted that she does not wish to prosecute the petitioners, in as much as, a compromise has taken place between the petitioners and the injured/victims. She alongwith other injured/victims prayed that they may be permitted to compound the offences against the petitioners and the criminal writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India be allowed and the proceedings of the aforesaid case crime number be quashed.

(3.) SINCE the injured/victims have buried all their differences against the petitioners, therefore, they should be permitted to compound such offences against the petitioners in the interest of justice.
