CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

O R D E R

% 10.02.2017 It is submitted that the petitioners and respondent no.2 are neighbours and on account of a trivial issue, a quarrel took place between them as a consequence whereof, FIR No.140/2015 was registered on complaint of respondent no.2 but with the intervention of common friends and relatives, petitioners and respondent no.2 have settled their dispute vide a Settlement Deed dated 7th January, 2017. It is, therefore, prayed that FIR No 140/2015 u/s 323/308/34 IPC, registered at PS Harsh Vihar may be quashed. Respondent no.2, is present in the court today and has been identified by the IO SI Pawan. He admits having settled the matter with the petitioners out of his own free will and without any undue pressure, force and coercion and states that he has no objection in case aforementioned FIR No 140/2015 u/s 323/308/34 IPC, registered at PS Harsh Vihar is quashed.

In view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served by continuing with the present criminal proceedings. Accordingly, in the interest of justice FIR No 140/2015 u/s 323/308/34 IPC, registered at PS Harsh Vihar and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Miscellaneous applications are disposed of as infructuous. Dasti.
