The alleged offence under section 307 is not compoundable as per section 320 of Cr.p.c.  If you are giving your own witness as eye witnesses they can turn hostile at the time of Trial. It is impossible to settle the matter even by filing affidavit. Only way is that if the investigating officer support you he can refer the matter as mistake of fact or false.

it certainly is complicated.. offence is not compoundable... a mistake of fact is the only option here....... i hope investigating officer doesn't become greedy...n i really appreciate your help...thank you

friend,

           though the said offences are noncompoundable but the high court has inherent power u/s 482 to quash the FIR on the ground of settlement further  it is not required to speak to IO so far as settlement is concerned.

you can refer bombay high courts judgment in which s.307 was quashed by Justice A.V. Potdar, Aurangabad Bench Dr. Shaheen case 2010 on settlement and various other supreme court judgment wherein court has quashed 307 after conviction.

therefore no need of mentioning of mistake of fact / or to approach the IO, lets keep hope ... bcoz where there is hope there is way.....
