Nothing can be said without looking at the averments made in the Complaint and the offenses made out therein. Do post the copies of the private complaint that has been filed against you and the Compromise Decree passed by the MACT so that we would be able to apply our minds on it.

The case is not compondable. Any compensation or compromise out of court is not a bar the initiate action as has done against you. In the compenation claim you can produce the medical bills for having attended and seek set-off in case the comensation awarded is more than Rs.150000 and if the award is less than that you can recover the balance amount.
