    The High Court allowed the petition and set aside the Judicial Magistrate's December 2, 2023 order rejecting a cancellation report for the third time. The court held that the magistrate mechanically rejected the cancellation report solely based on the offences being non-compoundable, without applying legal reasoning or considering the investigating agency's grounds for seeking cancellation. The matter was remanded to the trial court for a fresh order in accordance with law. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
