12.11.2013 In the above-captioned two petitions, quashing of FIR

CRL.MC.859/07 & 234108 Pagel 2013:DHC:6799

While entertaining the above-captioned two petitions, no interim order was passed.
Learned Additional Public Prosecutor for respondent-State points out that there is no compromise deed nor there is any affidavit of respondent No.2, on record. However, the bail order of 7th March, 2007
(Annexure-B), reveals that petitioner-Vinod Kumar Sharma had undertaken to pay ~ 3,83,314/- to respondent-complainant and with this undertaking, bail was granted to petitioner-Vinod Kumar Sharma. Brief synopsis of respondent No.2, on record of Crl.M.C.859/2007, reveals that there is no settlement between petitioner and respondent No.2. Since there are no interim orders, therefore, trial of this FIR case must have proceeded. In any case, none appears on behalf of petitioner. Thus, there is no option except to dismiss these petitions.
In view of what is stated above, the above-captioned two petitions and the applications are dismissed in default and for non-prosecution.
