% 20.04.2018 1.

Petitioners seek quashing of FIR No.266/2012 under Sections 307/34 IPC 27/54/59 Arms Act, Police Station Punjabi Bagh, based on a Settlement.

2.

Parties are related to each other.

Petitioners are the Uncle and cousin of respondent No.3.

3.

With the intervention of the family members, the parties have amicably settled their disputes.

Respondent Nos.2 & 3 are present in Court in person are also represented by counsel and identified by the Investigating Officer. They confirm that they have arrived at a Settlement with a view to maintain peace and harmony in the family and further submit that they do not wish to press their complaint any further. Crl.M.C.1136/2018

4.

The petitioners are also present in person in Court. They have shown remorse for their conduct and undertake that no such offence shall be repeated in future.

5.

In view of the above and keeping in view of the fact that the parties are related to each other and have resolved their dispute with the intervention of family members with a view to restore peace and harmony between them and a Settlement has been arrived at between the parties, and further they do not wish to press charges against each other, continuation of criminal proceedings will be an exercise in futility and justice in the case demands that the dispute between the parties is put to an end and peace is restored; securing the ends of justice being the ultimate guiding factor. It would be expedient to quash the subject FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom.

6.

Accordingly, FIR No.266/2012 under Sections 307/34 IPC 27/54/59 Arms Act, Police Station Punjabi Bagh, and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are hereby quashed, subject to the petitioner depositing costs of Rs.50,000/- each to be paid to the "Prisoners Welfare Fund, Jail No. 13, Mandoli", Mangal Pandey Marg, Harsh Vihar, Village Mandoli, Delhi, within a period of three weeks from today. Receipt of deposit of the costs imposed by this Order be furnished to the concerned Investigating Officer within a period of four weeks from today. 7.
