Heard. 3. Both the parties were directed by this Court vide order dated 30.08.2016 to appear before the learned Area Magistrate and get their statements recorded and in pursuance thereof, learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Chandigarh recorded the statements of both the parties and submitted a report dated 08.09.2017. A perusal of the report reveals that the compromise entered into between the parties is genuine and without any pressure, coercion, undue influence or inducement from any quarter. Even as on today the parties are not disputing the factum of compromise arrived at between them. 4. No objection has been raised by the learned counsel for U.T. Chandigarh on a specific query put to him by the Court with regard to quashing of the FIR as well as all other consequential proceedings on the basis of the compromise effected between the parties in this case. 5. Inasmuch as the dispute between the parties has been amicably settled and they have already entered into compromise, and the fact that no objection has been raised by the State, continuance of the prosecution would be an exercise in futility. Therefore, the aforesaid FIR and all consequent proceedings resulting therefore are quashed. 6. Petition is allowed.
