HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S.P.GARG

O R D E R

% 12.01.2017 (1) Present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioners for quashing of FIR No.216/2012 under Sections 406/498-A/34 IPC registered at Police Station Mundaka. It is stated that the matter has been settled with the complainant/R-2 amicably before Family Courts, West District.

(2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court along with her counsel and father. The Investigating Officer present in the CRL.M.C. 109/2017

court has identified her. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioners amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter has been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR. It is informed that pursuant to the settlement demand draft bearing No.664337, dated 10.01.2017 for the sum of `50,000/-, drawn on Syndicate Bank has been handed over to the complainant today in the court. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted.

(3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Order dated 15.11.2016 of Family Court, West District recording settlement between the parties is on record.

(4) Since the complainant/Respondent No.2 has voluntarily settled the dispute with the petitioners, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to put an end to the litigation and to enable the parties to settle in life after divorce, FIR No.216/2012 under Sections 406/498-A/34 IPC registered at Police Station Mundaka and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petition is disposed of accordingly.
