Short Note : 1. Twelve accused applicants viz Kesharsingh Durgsing etc. have been convicted u/s 147 & 323/149 of the Penal, Code and on each count have been sentenced to R. I. for a period of one month and fine Rs. 50/- or in default to suffer further rigorous imprisonment for 20 days, both the sentences to run concurrently. Held: These applicants and the injured persons Janaksingh Jeewaram Ramlal and Jagannath have filed an application u/s 320 (2) of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 for permission to compound the offence. It appears that the dispute arose over passing to a field and in that the applicants happened to cause injuries to the complainants. It is further noticed that they are all resident of the same village. By this compromise the relations would improve and there would be no trouble between them. I therefore grant permission to compound. 2. The complainants and the applicants have filed a compromise petition stating that they have compounded the offence. This petition bears thumb impression and signatures of some of them. I have ascertained from them and they confirmed the compromise. Regarding the offence u/s 147 of Indian Penal Code, it is not compoundable. However, since the common intention of unlawful assembly was to cause hurt and commit offence which are compoundable the charge u/s 147 of the Indian Penal Code should fail. For all these reasons, I feel satisfied that the applicants must be acquitted of all the charges. Ramphal Gope and others v. The State of Bihar, 1964 [2] Cr.L.J 111 (Vol., 69) and State v. Bherulal Dagadulal Jain and others-1970 Cr.L.J. 1033 (Vol. 76) relied on. Accused acquitted.
