Case Summary: CRM-M/3166/2026 Decision: The High Court of Punjab and Haryana allowed the petition and quashed FIR No. 493 (registered December 15, 2025) against Shamsher for negligent discharge of a pistol causing serious injury to complainant Satpal, based on a voluntary compromise dated January 12, 2026. Key Reasoning: Justice Vinod S. Bhardwaj found the settlement genuine and voluntary, the offense non-heinous (involving negligent rather than intentional conduct), the case still in early investigative stages, and continuation futile since the complainant would not support prosecution. The court applied Supreme Court precedent requiring quashing when parties settle cases with predominantly civil character and conviction chances are remote. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
