Hi,

No, both parties settling an issue between themselves will not be ground for quashing of the FIR.

A criminal act is taken as a crime against society rather than against the individual, which is why the criminal machinery is put into motion and the State acts on behalf of the people.

Let's say for instance, that you commit a crime against one child and settle the matter with her, that does not mean that you will not proceed to do the same with other children. That's why unless the case is disproved against you. It shall continue.

Dear client,
This case is non compoundable or cm not be compromise. whereas if the statement of such Girl is in support of accused and evidences are in favour, then you may opt for quashing of cognizance rather FIR.
