    The High Court of Punjab & Haryana dismissed the petition filed by Sunita Rani and others seeking to quash FIR No.194 (registered under Sections 306 and 506 IPC for abetment to suicide and criminal intimidation) based on a compromise agreement dated 24.02.2023. The court found the petition unmaintainable following the Division Bench's observations in Rakesh Das v. State of Haryana, holding that FIRs under Section 306 IPC cannot be quashed on the basis of compromise, and dismissed the petition due to the petitioners' failure to appear and provide relevant case law despite multiple adjournments since January 2025. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
