Prayer in this petition is for quashing of FIR No. 75 dated
27.07.2016 under Sections 498A, 34 IPC registered at Police Station
Anandpur Sahib, District Roopnagar alongwith consequential proceedings
arising therefrom on the basis of a compromise arrived at between the
parties.
Parties were directed to appear before the learned trial
Court/Illaqa Magistrate for getting their statements recorded in respect to
the settlement vide order dated 02.05.2017 passed by this Court.
As per report dated 26.05.2017 received from the learned Sub
Judicial Magistrate, Sri Anandpur Sahib, it is mentioned that none of the
parties appeared for recording of their statements. It is noticed that another
opportunity was afforded to the petitioners for getting their statements
recorded vide order dated 30.05.2017.
None had appeared on behalf of the petitioners on the last date
of hearing. Sh. Gurdial Singh – father of respondent No. 2, identified by

the petitioners have not come forward with the entire settled amount. The
cheque of `50,000/- handed over to respondent No. 2 was not even
honoured. The matter was adjourned for today.
Today again, there is no representation on behalf of the
petitioners. It appears that the petitioners are not interested in carrying out
the terms and conditions of the settlement.
This petition is dismissed for non-prosecution.
