ORDER
Petitioners are accused 1 and 4 in Crime
457/2008 registered for the offences under sections 341,324, 308, and 427 read with section 34 of Indian Penal Code. Subsequently offence under section 326 IPC was substituted
for the offence under section 324 IPC. This petition is filed under section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure to quash Annexure -I F.I.R and all further proceedings, contending that entire disputes were settled amicably. Though Annexure-II affidavit of first
respondent was submitted, learned Public Prosecutor submitted that subsequent to the filing of the petition, the statement of first
respondent was recorded and the statement so recorded shows that there was no settlement and

he has no intention not to proceed with the case. In such circumstances, based on the affidavit filed by the petitioner the case cannot be quashed. Moreover, all non-compoundable offences cannot be quashed invoking the extra ordinary powers of this court under section 482 of Code of Code of Criminal Procedure, as held by the Apex Court in Manoj Sharma v. State (2008(4) KLT 417. In such
circumstances, petition is dismissed.
