this is very simple to understand both i.e., civil suit and criminal case are different remedies so both cases are maintainable.  further i would like to mention that for the purpose of quashing either fir or case there are two ways 1) compounding of offence 2) is mutually and 3) on merits you may proceed accordingly.
