Shiji @ Pappu & Ors vs Radhika & Anr

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's dismissal of the petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing FIR No.6/2010, alleging offences under Sections 354 and 394 IPC, was justified as the offences were not 'personal in nature' despite a compromise between the parties. The Court emphasized that the nature of the offences involved does not allow for quashing based solely on personal settlement, referencing the precedent in Madan Mohan Abbot v. State of Punjab (2008) 4 SCC 582. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, upholding the High Court's decision.
