Mohd Javed and 5 Others v. State of Up and Another
Case brief
What is this about?
The applicants sought quashing of proceedings under Section 482 Cr.P.C. based on an out-of-court compromise.

The petition was disposed of by granting liberty to file the compromise before the trial court.
What did the court decide?
Liberty granted to approach the trial court to file the compromise; stay on coercive action granted until trial court decision.
