HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

O R D E R

% 18.01.2017 Crl. M.A. No. 962/2017 (exemption) Allowed, subject to all just exceptions. Application is disposed of. W.P.(CRL) No. 158/2017 Petitioner no. 1 is the husband of respondent no. 2. Petitioner nos. 2 to 6 are relatives of petitioner no. 1. Petitioner no. 1 and respondent no. 2 have settled their disputes before the Delhi Mediation Centre, Tis Hazari Courts, Delhi on 9th June, 2016. Petitioner no. 1 and respondent no. 2 have resolved their differences and started living together. Respondent no. 2 is present in Court and admits that she is living with the petitioner no. 1 since 9th June, 2016. She submits that FIR may be quashed.

Keeping in mind that husband and wife have resolved their differences and have started living together, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served to keep the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, FIR No. 318/2016 under Sections 498-A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Tilak Nagar and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed. Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Dasti. A.K. PATHAK, J.
