3. This criminal misc. petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioners for quashing the FIR No. 100/2023 registered at Police Station Sandero, Distt. Pali for the offence under Sections 342 , 323, 354, 509 & 376 of IPC and Sections 3(1)(w)(i), 3(2)(va), 3(1)(c) & 3(1)(e) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and entire criminal proceedings pursuant thereto, on the basis of compromise arrived at between the parties.
