    Summary: The Himachal Pradesh High Court quashed FIR No.15/2022 against Rajesh Kumar Sharma for rash/negligent driving causing hurt under IPC Sections 279, 337-338 and Motor Vehicles Act Section 187. The court found that the parties had amicably settled the dispute through compromise, the complainant (injured party) no longer wished to prosecute, and the offences were minor rather than heinous. Applying Supreme Court precedent, the court exercised its inherent power under Section 482 BNSS to quash proceedings and acquit the accused, noting that continuing prosecution would serve no purpose and would constitute abuse of process. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
