15.4) Offences under Section 307 IPC and the Arms Act etc.
would fall in the category of heinous and serious offences
and therefore are to be treated as crime against the society
and not against the individual alone, and therefore, the
criminal proceedings for the offence under Section 307 IPC
and/or the Arms Act etc. which have a serious impact on the
society cannot be quashed in exercise of powers under
Section 482 of the Code, on the ground that the parties have
resolved their entire dispute amongst themselves. However,
the High Court would not rest its decision merely because
there is a mention of Section 307 IPC in the FIR or the
charge is framed under this provision. It would be open to the
High Court to examine as to whether incorporation of
Section 307 IPC is there for the sake of it or the prosecution
has collected sufficient evidence, which if proved, would lead

the vital/delicate parts of the body, nature of weapons used
etc. However, such an exercise by the High Court would be
permissible only after the evidence is collected after
investigation and the charge sheet is filed/charge is framed
and/or during the trial. Such exercise is not permissible when
the matter is still under investigation. Therefore, the ultimate
conclusion in paragraphs 29.6 and 29.7 of the decision of this
Court in the case of Narinder Singh (supra) should be read
harmoniously and to be read as a whole and in the
circumstances stated hereinabove;

Parbatbhai Aahir @ Parbatbhai ... vs The State Of Gujarat on 4 October, 2017
In Parbatbhai Aahir (Supra), the Hon'ble Supreme Court held
that the High Court was justified in declining to entertain the
application for quashing the FIR in exercise of its inherent
jurisdiction, as the case involved extortion, forgery, conspiracy,
fabrication of documents, utilization of fabricated documents to
effectuate transfers of title before the registering authorities and
deprivation of the complainant therein of his interest in land on the
basis of a fabricated power of attorney, and consequently it was
not in the interest of the society to quash the FIR on the ground
that a settlement had been arrived at with the complainant. Such
offences could not be construed to be merely private or civil
disputes but implicated the societal interest in prosecuting serious
crime.
