HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP MEHTA
Judgment / Order
27/02/2018

The instant misc. petition has been filed seeking quashing of

the proceedings of the F.I.R. No.12/2018 registered at the Police

Station Charbhuja, District Rajsamand for the offences under

Sections 498A and 406 IPC on the basis of the compromise.

The respondent No.2 is the first informant and the petitioner

No.1 is her husband.

(2 of 3)
[CRLMP-640/2018]

The learned counsel representing the respective parties i.e.

accused petitioners including husband and the respondent No.2

wife, submit that the litigating spouses have mutually decided to

terminate their marital ties and have filed an application under

Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act seeking a decree of divorce.

The petitioner has paid a lumpsum lifetime maintenance amount

to the tune of Rs.4 lacs to the respondent No.2 through a bank

transfer. A mutual compromise dated 17.2.2018 executed inter-se

between the parties has been annexed with the petition in which,

the parties have agreed to got the cases lodged inter-se between

them terminated through compromise. They thus, submit that the

proceedins going on in the trial court against the accused

petitioners should be quashed.

In this view of the matter and looking to the guidelines

issued by the Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of Gian Singh Vs.

State of Punjab Anr. reported in JT 2012(9) SC-426, it is

apparent that allowing continuance of proceedings of impugned

FIR against the petitioners any further would not be expedient in

the interest of justice. If the proceedings of the impugned FIR are

allowed to continue, it may result into the compromise being

unsettled.

Accordingly, the misc. petition is allowed. The F.I.R.

No.12/2018 registered at the Police Station Charbhuja, District

Rajsamand and all subsequent proceedings sought to be taken

thereunder against the petitioners, is quashed. However, it is

made clear that if the petitioner resiles or takes any action which

leads to the failure of the proceedings under Section 13B of the
(3 of 3)
[CRLMP-640/2018]

Hindu Marriage Act, the respondent No.2 complainant shall be at

liberty to seek revival of these criminal proceedings by filing an

appropriate application before this Court.

Stay petition is also disposed of.
