By way of the present petition, the petitioners seek quashing of the FIR bearing No. 605/2014, registered at Police Station Neb Sarai, Delhi, for the commission of offences punishable under Sections 363/366/376/506/509 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (hereafter 'IPC') and Sections 6/21 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2023 (hereafter 'POCSO Act') and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom on the basis of settlement arrived at between the parties.

the daughter of the respondent no. 2 had eloped and got married to each other. Thereafter, the respondent no. 2/complainant had filed a missing complaint, pursuant to which the present FIR came to be registered against the petitioners. It is stated that with intervention of the family and friends, the parties have now amicably settled their dispute and both the parties are living together.
5.
On a query made by this Court, respondent no. 2 who has been identified by the IO, has categorically stated that she has entered into compromise out of her own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. It is also stated that daughter of respondent no. 2 and petitioner no. 1 have been living with each other peacefully for several months and have also been blessed with male child who is about 11 years old in age. Therefore, she has no objection if the present FIR is quashed. 6.
In view of the above, that the parties have amicably resolved their differences out of their own free will, and without any coercion, no useful purpose will be served by continuing the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them. It would thus be in interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question. 7.
Accordingly, FIR bearing No. 605/2014, registered at Police Station Neb Sarai, Delhi, for the commission of offences punishable under Sections 363/366/376/506/509 of Indian Penal Code, 1860 ('IPC') and Section 6/21 of the POCSO Act and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.
