Singh and others Vs. State of Punjab and another, 2007(3) RCR
(Criminal) 1052, approved by Hon’ble Apex Court in Gian Singh Vs. State
of Punjab and others (2012) 10 SCC 303, the instant petition is allowed

Needless to say that parties shall remain bound by the terms
of compromise and their statements made in the Court below.
