No doubt the offences involved are such that this Court has to exercise restraint and be circumspect in proceeding for closing the dispute inter se the parties herein, however, considering a No Objection-cumSettlement Deed has been executed voluntarily between them, and since they have also filed their respective accompanying affidavit(s) herewith, as also the parties have since married each other, 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. Needless to say, the parties have agreed to and shall remain bound by all the terms and conditions contained in the No Objection-cum-Settlement Deed. 7.
Accordingly, the present petition is allowed and FIR No.350/2024 dated 27.05.2024 registered at PS.: Dayal Pur under Sections 376(2)(n)/506 of the IPC and all proceedings emanating therefrom are hereby quashed.
