% 17.12.2024 1.

This is the petition filed under Section 528 of BNSS, 2023 seeking quashing of the FIR No. 662/2020 registered at PS Dayalpur under Sections 354/498A/406/506/34 of IPC.

2.

During the pendency of the proceedings, the parties have arrived at a settlement dated 05.03.2022, wherein a sum of Rs. 3.5 lakhs was to be paid by the petitioner to the respondent No.2. A sum of Rs. 3 lakhs has already been paid by the petitioner and the balance sum of Rs. 50,000/- is being paid today in cash by the petitioner to the respondent No.2.

5.

The parties have arrived at a settlement out of their own free will and without any undue influence, threat, pressure or coercion. 6.

There is no child born out of the wedlock.

7.

I am convinced that quashing of such proceedings on account of compromise would bring about peace and would secure ends of justice. The Court does not see any fruitful purpose if criminal proceedings are permitted to continue any further. It is a fit case for quashing. In the view of the matter, there is no reason to continue the proceedings.

8.

In view of the aforesaid terms, the FIR No. 662/2020 registered at PS Dayalpur under Sections 354/498A/406/506/34 of IPC and all consequential proceedings arising therefrom are hereby quashed. 9.

The petition is disposed of in the aforesaid terms.
