applications of the petitioners, both the parties had amicably settled their disputes vide Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) dated 08.06.2018. 4.

On a query made by this Court, Authorized Representative of respondent no.2, who has been identified by the IO, has categorically stated that respondent no. 2 has entered into compromise out of its own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. It is also stated by AR of respondent no.2 that the entire dispute has been amicably settled between them vide the aforesaid MOU. Authorized Representative of respondent nos.2 further states that he has no objection, if the present FIR is quashed. 5.

In view of the above fact that the parties have amicably resolved their differences of their own free will, and without any coercion, no useful purpose will be served by continuing the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them. It would thus be in interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question. 6.

Accordingly, FIR bearing no. 292/2018, registered at Police Station Rajouri Garden, Delhi for commission of offence punishable under Sections 419/420/468/471/120B of IPC and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed, subject to the costs of Rs.20,000/- each to be paid by the petitioners in following manner:
