The petitioners and respondent no. 2 are present before this Court. They have been identified by their counsels and concerned Investigating Officer (IO) from Police Station Sector-23, Dwarka, Delhi. 5.

Briefly stated, facts of the present case are that on 16.08.2022, pursuant to a financial dispute between the parties, the present FIR was registered against the petitioners under the relevant sections. 6.

It is stated that both the parties have amicably settled the present matter vide Deed of Settlement dated 05.10.2024, entered between them. 7.

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. 8.

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. 9.

Accordingly, FIR bearing No. 0358/2022, registered at Police Station Sector-23, Dwarka, Delhi for the commission of offences punishable under Section 420 of IPC and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed, subject to payment of costs of Rs.10,000/-, to be deposited with Advocates' Welfare Fund, Dwarka Courts, Delhi, within a period of seven days from date.
