Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court disposed of a Special Leave Petition concerning an interim anticipatory bail order from the Punjab & Haryana High Court, which required the petitioner to pay Rs. 1 lakh to the complainant. The Court noted that the FIR had been quashed based on a compromise between the parties, and subsequent matrimonial proceedings led to a mutual divorce under Section 13-B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. The Court ordered the return of the deposited amount to the petitioner, clarifying it was unrelated to the settlement terms.
