A compromise has been submitted by Mr. Subhash and Smt. Taramani wherein Smt. Taramani has clearly stated that she does not wish to pursue the criminal proceeding pending against Mr. Subhash for offences under Sections 498A and 406 IPC, and under Section 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. This petition has been filed for compounding the offences mentioned hereinabove on the ground that the learned trial court has refused to compound the said offences. Considering the fact that both the husband and the wife have entered into a compromise, considering the fact that the wife does not wish to pursue the criminal proceeding against the husband, considering the fact that in catana of cases the Hon’ble Supreme Court has held that in the cases of matrimonial dispute, and in offence arising therefrom, offences under Sections 406 and 498A should be compounded, this Court compounds the offences mentioned above and directs that the criminal proceeding pending before the Civil Judge (Junior Division) and Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Laxmangarh, District Sikar in case No.218/2007 be quashed and set aside. With these observations, this petition is, hereby, allowed.
