The court allowed the compounding application and quashed the entire POCSO criminal proceedings against the applicant. The court found that the parties had amicably settled their dispute, the victim (now married to the applicant since June 2024) confirmed no physical relations occurred before marriage and did not wish to pursue prosecution, and Supreme Court precedent permits compounding of non-compoundable offences when conviction likelihood is remote and continuation would cause injustice. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
