SUSHIL JAGGI @ LADDI Vs. STATE OF PUNJAB

JUDGEMENT

(1.) PRAYER in this petition is for quashing of FIR No.252 dated 12.09.2013, under Sections, 294,354 -A, 506 and 509, IPC, registered at Police Station, Dinanagar, District Gurdaspur, and all the consequential proceedings arising therefrom, on the basis of compromise (Annexure P -2).

(2.) VIDE order dated 20.12.2013, this Court had directed the affected parties to appear on 14.01.2014 before the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Gurdaspur, for getting their respective statements recorded with regard to the compromise. The said Court was also directed to send a detailed report in that regard along with copies of the statements to this Court, on or before the adjourned date.

(3.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioner submits that due to confusion, the present case was registered against the petitioner and now with the intervention of the respectable and the elderly people of the society, the dispute stood patched up between the private parties. He also contends that the chances of ultimate conviction of the petitioner are bleak, therefore, pendency of the FIR and continuation of the trial would be a sheer abuse of the process of law.
