Subsequently, in December 2024, respondent No. 2 had lodged a complaint before Police Station Ranhola asserting ownership over the said property, which culminated into the present FIR. 4.

On instruction from the concerned Investigating Officer (I.O.), the learned APP for the State submits that the allegations of forgery could not be substantiated during investigation and therefore, chargesheet was not file under those sections.

On a query made by this Court, respondent no. 2, who has been identified by the concerned IO, has categorically stated that he has entered into compromise out of his own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. It is also stated by respondent no. 2 that the entire dispute has been amicably settled between the parties. Respondent no. 2 further states that he has no objection if the present FIR is quashed. 7.

In view of the above fact that the parties have amicably resolved their differences out of their own free will, 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. 8.

Accordingly, FIR bearing No. 183/2022, registered at Police Station Greater Kailash, South, New Delhi, for the commission of offences punishable under Sections 420/406/448/120B of IPC and all consequential The authenticity of the order can be re-verified from Delhi High Court Order Portal by scanning the QR code shown above.
