Compromise u/s 354

Guest (Querist) 20 May 2024 This query is : Resolved
Hello Respected Lawyers and people. I want help in this false criminal case.

My uncle was falsely accused of and booked u/s 354 i.e. crime against women. As the FIR was registered in 2001 when it was a compoundable offence and now it is a non compoundable offence after amendment in 2009.

Can both the parties reach to a compromise between themselves?

Will the court accept the compromise and close the case as the FIR was filed when it was a compoundable offence?

Plese help In this matter. Thank you.

The user wants to know if the parties can still compromise and if the court will accept it, given the offence's status at the time of registration.

To my knowledge and understanding, the amendment is only of prospective effect and hence, the matter could be got compounded.
