relevant sections. It is stated that both the parties have amicably settled the present matter vide Compromise Deed/Memorandum of Understanding dated 21.07.2025, entered between them.
6.
On a query made by this Court, respondent no.2 who has been identified by the concerned IO, has categorically stated that she has entered into compromise out of her 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 she 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. 864/2022, registered at Police Station Nangloi, Delhi for the commission of offences punishable under Section 354 of Indian Penal Code, 1860 ('IPC') and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed, subject to costs of ₹10,000/-, to be deposited by the petitioner with District and Sessions Courts Employees Welfare Association, Delhi within seven days from date. 9.
