the Complainant/Respondent No. 2 for purchase of jewelry but they were caught red handed and they failed in their attempt. No loss has been caused to the Complainant/Respondent No. 2 as the Petitioners were apprehended before the card could be used for payment.

5.

Both the parties submit that they have amicably settled all differences by way of Oral Settlement certified vide Certificate dated 04.02.2025. Therefore, the Petition be quashed.

6.

The parties have endorsed the amicable Settlement certified vide Certificate dated 04.02.2025 and accepted the terms thereof voluntarily and have undertaken to remain bound by the terms of the Oral Settlement. 7.

In view of the above facts that the parties have amicably resolved their differences out of their own free will and without any coercion, no useful purpose will be served in continuing with the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them. Hence, it would be in the interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto.
