% 20.09.2016 (1) Present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioners for quashing of FIR No.02/2013 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Crime (Women) Cell. It is stated that the matter has been settled with the complainant/respondent No.2 amicably before the Family Court Counseling Cell Vishwas Nagar, Delhi.

(2) Respondent No.2-complainant is present before the Court along with her counsel. The Investigating Officer has identified her. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioner amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that the matter has been settled without any fear or pressure

and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR. Pursuant to the settlement, remaining amount of `50,000/- in cash has been paid to the complainant today in the Court.

(3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties. Photocopies of Settlement/Compromise deed dated 09.09.2014 before Family Court is on record.

(4) Since the complainant/Respondent No.2 has voluntarily settled the dispute with the petitioners, no useful purpose will be served to continue with the proceedings. In the interest of justice and to put an end to the litigation, FIR No.02/2013 under Sections 498A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Crime (Women) Cell and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petitioners are, however, burdened with costs of `15,000/- to be deposited with Prime Minister Relief Fund within two weeks. The Registry shall ensure the compliance of the order. (6) The petition is disposed of accordingly.
