2.

By means of this petition, moved u/s 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, the petitioner has sought quashing of the proceedings of the Criminal Case No. 1881 of 2005, State vs. Vinod relating to offences punishable u/s 147, 148, 149, 323, 324, 307 and 506 of I.P.C., Police Station Jwalapur, pending in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Hardwar.

3.

Learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned counsel for the respondents no.2 and 3 pleaded that the injured and complainant have entered into compromise with the petitioner (accused). However, offence punishable u/s 307 of I.P.C., is not a compoundable offence.

In the above circumstances, considering the nature of offence, without expressing any opinion as to final merits of the case, this court is not inclined to interfere with the trial of the case. If the witnesses injured and complainant does not support the prosecution case, before the trial court, such court will be at liberty to take note of the same and acquit the accused, if the charge is not proved.

5.

Therefore, the petition u/s 482 of Cr.P.C., is dismissed summarily, with the observation that if the petitioner Sanjay surrenders before the court concerned, his bail application shall be heard and disposed of without unreasonable delay.
