Material on record further discloses that a settlement deed has been entered into between the Petitioner and the complainant. Material on record also discloses that on 06.04.2019, the complainant took an amount of Rs.7,50,000/- in terms of the settlement deed. It is stated that after receiving the entire amount, the complainant has not taken any further steps to pursue the matter and she is not appearing in the court. Resultantly, the Petitioner has approached this Court for quashing of the said FIR. 4.

The facts as narrated in the present petition are not sufficient for quashing the said FIR. However, in the facts and circumstances of this case, this Court is inclined to direct the learned Trial Court to conclude trial within a period of six months from today more particularly because the complainant herself is not appearing in the proceedings. 5.

With these observations, the petition is disposed of along with pending application(s), if any.
