with her counsel. The Investigating Officer has identified her. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioner amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter has been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR. Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `75,000/- has been paid to the complainant today in court by way of demand draft bearing No.579636 dated 24.11.2016 drawn on State Bank of India. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted.
