Per contra, learned AGA submitted that it is a case which relates to sections 147, 148, 149, 307, 504, 506 IPC and according to the FIR, applicants were involved in commission of the offence under section 307 IPC alongwith other co-accused persons and with the common object, they committed offence under sections 147, 148, 307, 504, 506 IPC and there is allegation that due to the fire made by one of the accused (non applicant) two persons sustained injuries, therefore, it cannot be said that present dispute is private in nature and does not affect the public at large, it is a case in which all the accused including applicants were involved and with common object they tried to commit the murder of opposite party nos. 2 & 3 and charge sheet has already submitted in the year 2008 and in spite of passing of more than 14 years trial of the case is still pending which further suggest that applicants and other co-accused persons are not co-operating with the trial and anyhow in the mean time, they settled their dispute with opposite party no. 2 & 3 and this fact clearly suggests that the settlement dated 25.7.2022 is not voluntary one and it has been procured either under threat or under due to some monetary consideration and therefore, in such cases of heinous offences, on the basis such type of compromise, proceeding should not be quashed on the basis of settlement arrived between the parties.
