2. Present criminal misc. application is filed with the prayer to set-aside/quash the impugned charge sheet dated 31.03.2016, summoning/cognizance order dated 29.06.2016 and the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No.3029 of 2016, pending in the Court of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Haldwani, District Nainital on the basis of compromise between the parties.

3. Compounding application (I.A. No.1289 of 2026) is filed in the matter, wherein it is prayed to compound the offence between the parties.

4. Parties appeared before this Court, who are duly identified by their respective counsel. Parties have also filed their respective affidavits stating the facts of compromise between them.

5. It is jointly submitted by the parties that they have settled their scores.

6. Learned State Counsel vehemently opposed the compounding application.

7. Hon’ble Supreme Court, in a catena of its judgments, has observed that in cases where because of the compromise arrived at between the parties, possibility of conviction is remote and bleak, the High Court may quash the criminal proceedings as continuation of the same would cause great prejudice and injustice to the accused.

8. Following the aforesaid ratio, present compounding application is allowed. The offences between the parties are permitted to be compounded. As a result, entire proceedings of entire proceedings of Criminal Case No.3029 of 2016, pending in the Court of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Haldwani, District Nainital, are hereby quashed.

9. Criminal misc. application stands disposed of.
