Complainant / respondent No.2 is present with counsel and has been identified by the Investigating Officer. I have enquired from the complainant if she has settled the dispute with the petitioners amicably without any fear or pressure. She has informed that all the disputes between the parties have been resolved amicably with her free consent and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR in question. Marriage between the parties has been dissolved. Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `4,00,000/- by way of demand draft bearing No.005286 dated 22.03.2018 drawn on HDFC Bank in the name of the complainant has been given her today in the Court. 3.

Since the dispute between the parties has been settled, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings.
