If such case is related/connected with some other cases then such case can also be sent for mediation otherwise there is no scope.

Sukhija (Expert) 16 February 2010
Yes, it can. e.g. 498A cases and/or dispute between family members.

The Criminal Procedure Code does not prescribe referring a non compoundable offence to mediation unless the State Amendment allows it.
