The petitioner and the respondent no.2, present in Court, as well as their credentials, as on record, have been identified by the IO. 6.
Upon consideration of the existing facts and the overall events unfolding in their entirety, even though this Court is mindful that the present FIR No.760/2018 dated 13.11.2018 registered at PS: Narela, Rohini Delhi under Sections 323/341/354B/506/34 of the IPC, however, this Court is inclined to quash the present FIR in exercise of its inherent powers under Section 528 of the BNSS, particularly, since the respondent no.2 is willing to bring closure to the present proceedings and has given her affidavit to the aforesaid effect.
7.
Respondent no. 2 intends to end all disputes with the petitioner herein qua which their respective affidavit(s) to that effect have been annexed herewith. As such, following the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Jitendra Raghuvanshi & Ors. vs. Babita Raguvanshi & Anr.: (2013) 4 SCC 58, Gian Singh vs. State of Punjab & Anr.: (2012) 10 SCC 303 and Narinder Singh & Ors. vs. State of Punjab & Anr.: (2014) 6 SCC 466, since there is nothing left to corroborate and prove the case of the prosecution, continuation of the aforesaid FIR against the petitioner will be an exercise in futility.
8.
Accordingly, the present petition is allowed FIR No.760/2018 dated 13.11.2018 registered at PS: Narela, Rohini Delhi under Sections The authenticity of the order can be re-verified from Delhi High Court Order Portal by scanning the QR code shown above.
