Crl.OP.No.25496 of 2025
by this Court while exercising its jurisdiction under Section 482 of Cr.P.C,
to quash non-compoundable offences. One very important test that has been
laid down is that the Court must necessarily examine if the crime in question
is purely individual in nature or a crime against the society with overriding
public interest. The Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that offences against
the society with overriding public interest even if it gets settled between the
parties, cannot be quashed by this Court.
