compromised all disputes with the petitioners amicably. It is further informed by her that marriage between her and petitioner no. 1 already stands dissolved by way of a decree of divorce. It is submitted by her that they had a child, who has unfortunately passed away and now she wants to settle down in peace so she has opted to close all litigations.
