Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

A case u/s: 498-A IPC & S/s: 3 &4 is pending against my Son. My Son filed OP for divorce against defacto complainant. OP was compromised and divorce granted. In the memo of compromise filed in the said OP respondent wife agreed to withdraw the criminal case pending against my son. My son agreed to pay 2,00,000/- towards permanent alimony after withdrawl of the said criminal case and the same is also observed in the order of the Family Court. Under these circumstances is it permissible under law to get the criminal case compromised? OR should I approach the Hon\'ble High court for quashing of FIR. My son has not yet received summons.

It may better to approach the Hon'ble High Court for quashing of proceedings; you should also offer payment of the permanent alimony amount simultaneously in court.
