Holding
The court ordered the return of the original compromise deed, its filing before the Additional Sessions Judge for verification, and a stay of coercive action pending such verification.
Summary
The applicant, Paramveer, filed an application under Section 528 of the CrPC claiming that a compromise deed had already been executed with the State of U.P. and two other parties. The court noted that the original compromise deed had not been presented before the trial court and ordered its return to the applicant’s counsel. The applicant was directed to file the original deed before the Additional Sessions Judge, Moradabad, within 15 days, after which the judge must verify the compromise in the presence of both parties within four weeks and report back. The High Court also stayed any coercive action against the applicant in the pending criminal case (Case Crime No.53 of 2020) until the next listing. The order was to be communicated to the Additional Sessions Judge within three working days.

- Whether the compromise deed executed between the parties can be filed and verified under Section 528 CrPC
