CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. PATHAK

O R D E R

% 14.05.2018 Respondent no. 3 Ms. Sunita is present and accepts notice. It is submitted that petitioners and respondent nos. 2 and 3 are related to each other. A quarrel took place between them on some trivial issues, which led to registration of FIR no. 903/2003 under Sections 324/34 IPC at police station Sultan Puri on the complaint of respondent no. 2.

Subsequently, offence under Section 326 IPC was added. With the interventions of their elders, petitioners and respondent nos. 2 and 3 have settled their disputes amicably before Delhi Mediation Centre, Rohini Courts, Delhi on 1st June, 2012; therefore, aforesaid FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom may be quashed. Respondent nos. 2 and 3

are present in Court along with their counsel and have been identified by SI Ramesh Kumar of police station Sultan Puri. Respondent nos. 2 and 3 admit having settled the matter with petitioners of their own free will, voluntarily and without any undue force, pressure or coercion and they have no objection in case FIR is quashed against the petitioners. Keeping in mind the settlement arrived at between the petitioners and private respondents voluntarily, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served to keep the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, aforesaid FIR and the consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Dasti. A.K. PATHAK, J.
