O R D E R

% 12.03.2019 It is submitted that petitioner and respondent no. 2 are brother and sister respectively. Property disputes between them gave rise to registration of FIR No. 29/2011 under Sections 467/468/471 IPC at police station Chitranjan Park. It is further submitted that petitioner and respondent no.2 have now settled their disputes amicably before the Delhi Mediation Centre, Saket Court, New Delhi on 15.12.2018. It is submitted that aforesaid FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom may be quashed. Respondent no.2 is present in Court along with her counsel and has been identified by SI Avinash of police station Chitranjan Park. She submits that she has settled the matter with petitioner of her own free will and

without any undue force, pressure or coercion and has no objection in quashing of the FIR. Affidavit of respondent no. 2 to this effect is also on record.

Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioner and respondent no.2 voluntarily, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served in keeping the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, aforesaid FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms.

Dasti.
